Cardi B Wins Best Rap Album, Drake Shades Grammys, Rappers Boycott Gucci | Everyday Struggle

On Monday’s (Feb. 11) episode of #EverydayStruggle, Nadeska, Wayno and DJ Akademiks open the show recapping the winners and the  biggest moments of the 2019 Grammy Awards. The crew pays its respect to the hip-hop winners of the night, including Childish Gambino, Drake, Cardi B and more. The trio also debates whether or not the Grammys got right this year, and end the Grammy discussion talking about Drake’s inspirational acceptance speech that was cut off by the Grammy committee. Later in the episode, Ak and Wayno share their thoughts on the situation 21 Savage’s mom faced while trying to pick up her Grammy tickets. According to 21’s co-manager, Meezy, 21’s mom was being withheld from the tickets to the award show until he sent out a complaint via Twitter that eventually resolved the situation. The crew also provides an update on 21’s case against ICE and his current legal status. After this topic, the crew speaks on the Gucci sweater that trended last week due to its racist imagery, and comment on the actions of T.I. and Soulja Boy, who have stepped forward to boycott the high end Italian brand. To conclude today’s episode, the trio share their thoughts on Tory Lanez’s confrontation with up-and-coming Canadian artist Dax. Apparently Tory was not a fan of Dax’s diss record towards him and pulled up in person to ask for an apology from the unsigned rapper.
