When Jay-Z was a no-show at Kanye West’s Donda listening party at Chi-Town’s Soldier Field in 2022, it almost seemed as if the two, who once seemed inseparable, would never reunite in that capacity. Now, Kanye at least sees things the way Hov did when he agreed with Jay’s Grammy speech last night, which still has the industry abuzz.

In Jay-Z’s speech in which he called out the Recording Academy, he said, “I don’t want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than anyone, but has never won Album of the Year. So even by your own metrics, that doesn’t work.” He added, “Some of you might leave here feeling robbed, some of you might get robbed,” prompting laughter from the attendees.

Yeezy reposted the infamous speech Hov gave where he dragged the Recording Academy and their criteria for Grammy winners, seemingly approving of the message. This may not mean to expect another Watch The Throne sequel anytime soon, but at least Ye and Jay are on the same page about something.

Hip Hop billionaire Jay-Z took the time during his acceptance of his Dr. Dre Global Impact Award last night at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards to slam the Recording Academy for not giving his wife, Beyonce Knowles, album of the year.

He spoke on Beyonce being snubbed for Album of the Year, saying, “I don’t want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than anyone but has never won Album of the Year. So even by your own metrics, that doesn’t work.”

Following the heartfelt acceptance speech, Mr. Carter poured a shot of Armand de Brignac champagne into his phonograph and threw it back to the crowd’s delight.

Yes, Beyonce is Hov’s wife, but his insight into the winner selection process by the Academy wasn’t too far off the mark. Beyonce has 32 Grammy Awards, which is more than any other artist in the award show’s history. Additionally, Jay and Bey are tied for the most nominations for the coveted phonograph, with both boasting an incredible 88 nominations each. Jay has earned 24 Grammy awards, six of which are Album of the Year.
