Furthermore, “Family Ties” is one of the most acclaimed songs of the year, and is a strong showcase of both Keem and Lamar’s rapping skills. For starters, Lamar is arguably the biggest rap field darling, having scored 11 wins in the genre out of 21 nominations, which is even more impressive when you take into account that four of those 10 losses were in his first year when he controversially lost most of his categories to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, and that another one was because he beat himself (“All Day” losing Best Rap Song to “Alright” in 2016).

So let’s try to make sense of the nominees that remain. And this year Drake actually withdrew his own two nominations in the field when voting for the winners had already started. The Grammys in the rap field have often been controversial, with many of the all-time greats (like Jay-Z, Eminem, and Kendrick Lamar) almost always passed over in the top four general field categories.
