Nicki on her Twitter page on Tuesday night dragged Grammys for giving the award to Bon Iver.

She wrote: “Never forget the Grammys did not give me my best new artist award when I had seven songs simultaneously charting on billboard and bigger first week than any female rapper in the last decade and went on to inspire a generation. They gave it to the white man Bon Iver.”

The Rapper said this following the release of nominations for Grammys 2020, which had Beyoncé topping with 9 nominations, while artists like The Weeknd, Lil Baby were snubbed.

Meanwhile, this year’s Grammys award will be hosted by Comedian Trevor Noah.
