Hip-Hop Artists Starting An Anti-Grammy Concert
The Houston icon firmly believes that Hip-Hops stars & veterans should come together & host a concert on the same day as the Grammys. While the thought & sentiment is nice, it may be too short notice since the Grammys will be live on April 3. However, nothing is impossible & Hip-Hop as a whole makes up a decent chunk of their viewing audience. Drake, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj & The Weeknd were artists that he mentioned when sharing this idea with his followers. “I recommend that the artists I mentioned above—and more—come together in Las Vegas and perform at the same time as the Grammys on a special network and streaming platform to prove that ratings will change where the Grammys are concerned when the No. 1 selling genre in music—hip-hop—come together,” he expressed online.

Which Would You Watch On April 3rd?
In reality, most of Hip-Hop’s biggest artists don’t care about or need the Grammys at all. Yet, they keep treating the genre & its artists like they need them in today’s age. I’m not confidently sure if it’d gain more viewers that night than the Grammys, but I also wouldn’t be surprised either. Read more of FM Hip-Hop’s featured articles today.
