Jay-Z and Beyonce have been married since 2008. Since then, their music has evolved smoothly, and in 2018 they unexpectedly released their joint album “Everything is Love” as The Carters. The rapper caused quite a controversy during this year’s Grammy Awards. He appeared on stage with his daughter Blue Ivy, accepting the Global Impact Award on behalf of Dr. Dre, then started talking about his wife.
Jay-Z defended his wife. “Some of you may be ‘robbed'”
The rapper took the opportunity to hit out at the Academy, which he believes is disrespecting Beyonce’s achievements. More specifically, he meant the lack of an award in the “album of the year” category, which the singer has never received in her career so far. Despite the fact that the American singer owns a record number of Grammys.
I don’t want to embarrass this young lady [Beyonce – przyp. red.], but she has more Grammys than everyone else and has never won album of the year. I think there’s something wrong here… – he started.
– Some of you will go home today and feel like you have been “robbed.” Some of you may be “robbed”. Some of you don’t belong in your categories, he continued, criticizing other artists.
A confused Beyonce listened to everything, and her husband ended his statement with the words: “When I get nervous, I tell the truth.” Let us remind you that the American has been nominated in the “album of the year” category four times in history. This year, she lost to Taylor Swift, Adele, Harry Styles and Beck. Despite this, she has already won a total of 33 statuettes, thus making Grammy history.
