New School Rappers at the Grammys

As everyone in the entire universe knows, the Grammys were last night. Many new school rappers and hip hop artists were nominated or performed. Kanye West came away the most successful, pulling in awards for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration and Best Rap Song for "All of the Lights", which also gave Kid Cudi two Grammy's. West also won Best Rap Album for "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". Unfortunately, he didn't interrupt anybodies speech this year. There were no other victories for new school artists, although there were a plethora of nominations, including 3 for Nicki Minaj, 3 for Lupe Fiasco, and 1 for Drake, Wiz Khalifa, and J. Cole.

In another Grammy related story, J. Cole and Lupe Fiasco both took their mothers with them to the red carpet. Personally, I think that's awesome. Mom, if you're reading this, if I ever go to a red carpet, you're coming with me. This gave me a lot more respect for both of these artists. Classy move.
