Everybody wants to be recognized for hard work. But not everybody can. This is what The Grammys set a stage for. Year after year you will hear about how certain artists got robbed for such hard work. But in my opinion this one is the biggest. Just incase you don’t know who Travis Scott is, he is a critically acclaimed artist with multiple double platinum albums. In my opinion the biggest Grammy snub is when Travis Scotts ASTOWORLD lost album of the year to Cardi B’s Invasion Of Privacy . To keep this unbiased we will need the numbers. ASTROWORLD has over 4 billion streams while Invasion Of Privacy has 2.5 billion. These numbers go to show how big of a following Travis Scott has over Cardi B. The next factor is creativity, in every single song on ASTROWORLD, Jacques Webster is listed. Which is Travis Scotts real name. On Cardi B’s album it is said in many interviews with her producers that people are writing for her and that “she is the face of the operation”.

This isn’t Travis’s first snub either. On his 2016 album Birds In The Trap Sing Mcknight , he was up for rap album of the year, which he lost to Coloring book by Chance The Rapper. Although, in 2016 Travis wasn’t as well known and was up against some of the most critically acclaimed artist ever including Kanye West, Drake, and Chance. What makes me think that ASTROWORLD should have won is the features.
