Eminem has never been shy about calling out the music industry — but this time, his fury at the Grammys has fans buzzing louder than ever. In a fiery statement, the rap icon declared he will never attend the award show again, accusing the Recording Academy of using celebrities’ names to draw attention while rewarding “people you can’t even imagine.”
Eminem Calls Out the System
Eminem admitted that if he lost awards to giants like Kanye West or Kendrick Lamar, he could accept it. But what angers him is watching trophies go to artists “with no fans, no fame, and no impact.” He didn’t hold back, questioning:
“So who voted for them?”
The rapper also pointed to Nicki Minaj as a glaring example of the Grammy’s credibility problem. Despite her dominance in hip-hop for over a decade, Nicki has zero Grammys. Eminem didn’t mince words:
“Which female rapper is better than her? No one.”
Fans Rally Behind Em
As clips of his comments spread online, fans are lighting up Twitter and Instagram with support. Many echo his frustration, saying the Grammys often snub true talent for industry politics. Some even joked that a Grammy snub has become a “badge of honor” among legendary artists.

A Legacy Without Grammys
For Eminem, the message is clear: awards don’t define greatness. With over 220 million records sold worldwide, multiple Diamond albums, and an unmatched influence on the culture, Slim Shady has nothing left to prove. And if this rant is any indication, he’s closing the door on the Grammys for good.
