    She probably gonna lose against David Bowie's Blackstar in the Rock Performance category tbh. I least I hope so. Nothing against Jack White, he's outstanding. But like....Blackstar was just an amazing track. I feel like the committee were reaching by giving her that nomination.

    Rap albums that can easily replace Major Key in the Best Rap Album Nomination:
    Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition
    Isaiah Rashad - The Sun's Tirade
    Rae Sremmurd - SremmLife 2
    2 Chainz - ColleGrove
    Kendrick Lamar - untitled, unmastered
    Denzel Curry - Imperial (Since they gave Coloring Book the nomination despite it being a mixtape/free album)

    I just feel like they didn't really try there. Other than that nomination, the rest of the best rap album noms were expected. As for the winner, realistically it's probably between Views and TLOP. But if it were up to me, I'd say it should be between Coloring Book and Blank Face. The Grammys nominating De La Soul was just to make it look like they're still creditable let's be honest here.
