We need to talk about SZA on 'Luther.' Kendrick gets the headlines, but SZA carried the emotional weight of that record. Their chemistry is unmatched—it’s giving Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell energy for the modern era. Winning Record of the Year for a duet is rare these days, and it proves that real collaboration beats 'email verses.' They need to drop a full joint album immediately.

I love Kendrick, but the Grammys are so boringly predictable. Giving him Best Rap Album again for 'GNX' feels like they are on autopilot. There were so many exciting new sounds in rap this year—GloRilla, Doechii, JID—but the Academy just lazily votes for the name they recognize. It’s the 'safe' choice. Hip-hop is evolving, but the voters are still stuck in 2015. Give someone else a chance to shine.

It is officially time to close the debate: Kendrick Lamar is the greatest rapper of all time. Passing Jay-Z for the most Grammys (27 wins!) proves that he has the longevity and the quality. 'Luther' with SZA wasn't just a hit; it was a vocal masterpiece that bridged R&B and Rap perfectly. While other rappers are chasing TikTok trends, Kendrick is still making art that clears the board. We are lucky to be witnessing his prime.
