    Im happy Eminem won, but Relapse is a wack album, and if it aint wack its average at best.

    Also very true. People need to stop bringing up race when it comes to the Grammys.

    race shouldnt be brought up ever when dealing with how good someone is, thats why a lot of of the people on this forum are stupid when they let the fact that eminem said ****** on a cd when he was young, then they turn around and say he sucks now..as if what he has has written already has changed ...

    I'm not mad that Em won. I didn't watch the show, and I didn't even know who was nominated. All this talk of Jay winning next year is cool but it seems like everyone is forgetting about that Rae joint. I liked it better that BP3, but that's just my opinion.

    Blackout 2 was better than relapse. OBFCL2 was better than relapse. The Last Kiss was better than relapse.

    Umm no, you reachin son. Both those albums were as avg as can get. Relapse is solid

    To anyone on this site that thinks they can create a topic about Eminem and it not turn into a race dispute, good luck. It's a lost cause. But I don't know why anyone is shocked that he won. No, Relapse is not Em's best album, but look at the competition, or lack there of. And did you really expect the Grammy committee to look at any rap albums outside of the mainstream? Most of those people have only heard of Jay-Z, Em, Kanye, and Lil Wayne. It's not like they were gonna consider Scarface or Raekwon's last album.

    um no Flo Rida being nominated is the joke

    amazing people are focused on the winner... but overlook the fact that Flo Rida is nominated... where is the thread on that



    um yes it is a joke. wack ass relapse did not deserve to win best rap album over ectsatic and renaisaance.

    If you think Relapse was a "wack" album I hate to see what you do like.

    His album was whack I didn't think he should of won it, but then again 09 wasn't such a good year for Hip Hop music. Raekwon Built for Cuban linx 2 was the best album of 09 IMO

    It's gonna be interesting to see the rap field next year, though. And how they're gonna divide the wins.

    Jay-Z
    Eminem
    Kanye

    It's hard to tell because all three get nominated/win for almost anything. Only time will tell...

    Best Rap Album Nominees:



    'Relapse,' Eminem

    'Universal Mind Control,' Common

    'R.O.O.T.S.' Flo Rida

    'The Renaissance,' Q-Tip

    'The Ecstatic,' Mos Def

    SO all this albums were better than OB4CL II and Blakout II? Universal mind Control, R.O.O.T.S made the cut?... RIP HIPHOP
