- 0
When the Grammys 2021 nominations were unveiled, there were some majorly surprising snubs that had everyone scratching their heads including The Weeknd's After Hours and Cardi B ft. Megan Thee Stallion's WAP getting zero nominations. While fans took over Twitter to show their displeasure with The Weeknd even sharing his unimpressed stance on the nominations, Cardi B has shared her honest thoughts during a recent Instagram Live session.
Revealing why she chose not to submit WAP for Grammys 2021 nominations, Cardi stated, "Stop playing with me. Like I said, I've never pressed for a Grammy, but y’all are not gonna take away something that I know that I worked my a** off that I deserve. If I was pressed for a Grammy I would have submitted WAP for this year and I didn’t submit. I didn’t want to be submitted to award shows until I put out my album because I think my album is so good and it just means something and I worked on it a lot."
Moreover, teasing her upcoming album, the 28-year-old rapper shared, "I’ve been working on it for almost two years. Some songs are just so emotional to me because I did them during quarantine. I’m not pressed for nothing, but you're not gonna keep doing this s**t constantly because y’all are upset. Y’all cannot take my success."
