Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Jay-Z said some of yall don’t even belong in a category as he dissed with the Grammys over Album of the year.


Jay-Z had some pointed words for the Recording Academy at the 66th annual Grammy Awards ceremony.

While accepting theDr. Dre Global Impact Award at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, the rapper called out the academy for snubbing his superstar wife, Beyoncé, for Album of the Year.

During his passionate speech, which he delivered beside his 12-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, Jay-Z pointed out Beyoncé’s 32 Grammy victories and questioned why she hasn’t won one of the awards show’s biggest honors, despite scoring the most Grammys in history.

South African singer, Tyla has won the Best African Music Performance category at the Grammys.

Tyla who had her breakthrough with the hit song ‘Water’ in 2023 defeated a line-up of Nigerian artistes that includes Davido, Burna boy, Asake and Ayra Starr.

Best African Music Performance is one of three brand new categories debuting at the 2024 Grammy Awards, along with Best Alternative Jazz Album and Best Pop Dance Recording. The latter award was won by Kylie Minogue.

“Water” will appear on Tyla’s self-titled debut album, which is out March 22.

Looking over at Beyoncé, who sat in the audience dressed like a glamorous cowgirl, he said, “I don’t want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than anyone and never won album of the year.”

“So even by that your own metrics that doesn’t work. Think about that, the most Grammys, never won album of the year, that doesn’t work,” Jay-Z continued.

“Some of you are gonna go home tonight and feel like you’ve been robbed. Some of you may get robbed. Some of you don’t belong in the category,” he continued, as the crowd gasped.

Holding nothing back, he doubled down on his words, adding, “When I get nervous, I tell the truth.”

Fans on X (formerly Twitter) hit the social platform to applaud the “99 Problems” rapper for standing up for his wife.
