J. Cole has taken to Twitter today to react to last night’s GRAMMY Awards.
In a series of tweets, Cole revealed how happy he was for winners like Cardi B, Jay Rock, Anderson .Paak, Young Thug, Future and Ella Mai, and showed his disappointment for Travis Scott and 6LACK not picking up awards. He also talked about how much awards used to mean to him, but now he doesn’t need validation from them.
Check out the tweets below.
i don’t never wanna be propped up by tearing somebody else down. Seeing Cardi b win a Grammy make me feel like I won. Same with jay rock and Anderson. I feel for Travis cuz he really deserved that acknowledgement as well, but his moment is way bigger than the awards could say

I went through a lot of heart break the first half of my career, maybe even longer, cuz deep down I needed that validation that I thought the awards could bring. But it’s a quote I’m about to google that’s the realist shit and sums up how I feel today. 4 anybody that need 2 hear

Seeing Thug get a Grammy incredible. Future too. been deserved. March madness was bigger than the Grammy’s. And congrats Ella mai 👑. 6lack really deserved too, but don’t sweat it my brother. No award show could ever get it all the way right. Especially one that ain’t run by us
