So…Here is the next category. I couldn’t find all of the videos, so some are MP3’s.
Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group
(For duo, group or collaborative performances of Rap only. Singles or Tracks only.)
- Kanye West ft. Young Jeezy- Amazing
- Beastie Boys ft. Nas- Too Many Rappers
- Fabolous ft. Jay-Z- Money Goes
- Kid Cudi ft. Common & Kanye West- Make Her Say
- Eminem ft. Dr. Dre and 50 Cent- Crack a Bottle
The Kanye and Jeezy joint is crazy and has been an anthem for the NBA and most major sports this year. Nas and the Beastie Boys put together a dope collabo that is def historical, but I don’t think it is Grammy worthy. The Fabolous and Jay-Z joint is another great track, but it just didn’t bring anything special to the table for me. Didn’t really feel the “Crack a Bottle” joint as a whole but the beat was CRAZY!!! I’m really leaning towards Kid Cudi for this one. The song is dope as hell and I’m a fan of the underdogs! Plus…I would’ve never expected Common to be on this song and the unexpected suprise was nice to hear. What do you think?

Not really a big fan of the nominations in this catergory to keep it real but as long as Soulja Boy isnt in it I suppose its at least reputable. lol To me this catergory is based upon which of these artists had the best chemistry together and not necessarily based on how successful the song is or how much of an anthem it was. Out of all the nominees I personally playd the Fab and Jay song the most. Definetly one of my favorite songs off of the album ( still confused as to where Fabs nomination for this album is…). However I dont think he and Jay had the best chemistry on the track…which may have something to do with Jay not doing a whole verse…smh ‘Ye and Jeezy’s Amazing was a hot song as well 9 still confused about where Ye’s nomination for Best Album is 2 lol) But I would have to go with Kudi ‘Ye and Common again for the reasons you gave. This may not have been the biggest song but Chemistry wise..this song was great as compared to its competition. Still not an Eminem fan but …the Grammys seem to dig Marshall. smh
Who Should Win: Kid Cudi
Who Will Win: Eminem
