Travis Scott on Not Receiving Any Grammy Nominations: ‘So Hurt Man’
Travis Scott‘s No. 1 album, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight, unfortunately did not receive any love from the Grammy Awards this year and his reaction to the snub is about as you would expect.
The Vice President of A&R at Epic Records, Sickamore, shared a picture of Scott reading his phone and captioned it “reading the grammy nominations like….” Travis responded to the picture in the comments writing, “So hurt man.”
DJ Mustard also commented on the Grammy selections, writing, “I’m hot I ain’t gone lie but they always do that smh @sickamore.” “I was telling trav the story of when u called me after my krazy life…same call from him this morning smh,” Sickamore wrote back.
Meanwhile, Scott’s Birds producer Mike Dean also gave his take on the Grammy nominations this year. “No birds nominations. Grammys are. Kind to what’s cool and what the kids love. We need a Grammys for what’s really popping @trvisXX,” he tweeted at Scott.
