Macklemore texts Kendrick Lamar after Grammys

Macklemore has stated from the very beginning that Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city should win the Grammy for best rap album. So at the end of the night, after he took home the Grammy he didn’t think he deserved, it’s safe to say Macklemore was feeling a bit of winner’s guilt.

Shortly after the Grammy broadcast went off the air, (and presumably while on the way to numerous Grammy after parties) Macklemore sent Kendrick Lamar a text expressing his sorrow for “robbing” him.


Macklemore posted his text to Lamar on Instagram with the following caption: “My text to Kendrick after the show. He deserved best rap album. I’m honored and completely blown away to win anything much less 4 Grammys. But in that category, he should have won IMO, And that’s taking nothing away from The Heist. Just giving GKMC it’s proper respect. With that being said, thank you to the fans. You’re the reason we were on that stage tonight. And to play Same Love on that platform was a career highlight. The greatest honor of all. That’s what this is about. Progress and art. Thank you. #grammys.”
