Why Iggy Azalea Will Win the Best Rap Album Grammy: Op-Ed
When it comes to rap in regards to the Grammys, the question has become not who we hope wins, but who will win. And the answer usually comes in a trembling echo of united frustration. It happened last year when Kendrick Lamar was up against Macklemore. Rap aficionados were rooting for the Compton, Calif., rapper, whose critically acclaimed debut good kid, m.a.a.d city was branded an instant classic, but Macklemore, who many didn't consider as an "authentic" MC, ultimately swept the category.
It looks as if history will repeat itself. While Childish Gambino, Eminem, Common, ScHoolboy Q and Wiz Khalifa are nominated for Best Rap Album this year, it's more than likely that Iggy Azalea will take home the award at the 57th annual Grammy Awards for her album, The New Classic.
