Killer Mike’s Grammy hat-trick
Hat-trick On Sunday night (February 4), Killer Mike scored three major awards in rap categories including Best Rap Album, Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song, all thanks to his sixth studio LP “Michael”, specially to the André 3000, Future and Eryn Allen Kane-assisted “SCIENTISTS & ENGINEERS.” “Atlanta, it’s a sweep! You cannot tell me that you get too old. You can’t tell me it’s too late,” he declared on-stage during the Grammy Awards pre-show ceremony. “You can’t tell me! Dreams come true! It is a sweep!”
But shortly after that he was being led away in handcuffs with some people shouting “Free Mike” in the background. This was in connection to an alleged altercation with a female security guard outside Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles where the event was taking place.
However on Monday (Feb 5th) he released a statement concerning his arrest for fans and colleagues concerned saying everything was okay. He will be “cleared of all wrongdoing” as the statement said.

In addition, the rapper had expressed his wish for the Recording Academy to honor “Michael” before his Grammy wins. He stated,“I’m not gonna lie and act like I don’t want it, or I’m above it and just do it for the art. He also stated,“[Vincent] van Gogh was so amazing, but he died unrecognized. I don’t want to die unrecognized. I heard Muhammad Ali talk about being humble… For as humble in spirit as I am, people really look at me and listen a lot better when I got eight pounds of gold on my neck because they know I’m not f**king playin’!”
