Musicians who have never received a Rolling Stone Grammy Award
Brian McKnight – 16 nominations
It’s disappointing for Brian not to appear in the Grammy Awards anymore. With 16 nominations, he’s among two people who have had as many opportunities for the Grammy gramophone. Brian has a lot to offer when it comes to quality music. There’s a reason for his nominations. But it seems he’s missing one thing, a crucial piece of the puzzle to get it right. His fans appreciated the track Anytime (1997) and the album zurück um eins (1999) as his greatest musical achievements. But a Grammy will always be a great satisfaction for him. Especially after 16 failures in a career.
Snoop Dogg – 16 nominations
Snoop has received many awards in his life, but never a Grammy. He is one of the most famous hip hop artists in music history. There isn’t a fan of the culture who listens to his tracks like Nothing but a Gangster Thing , or Drop It Like It’s Hot . Even if he doesn’t necessarily want to win this award, he’s still disappointed. When Snoop dropped out of the honors circle that year, he spoke negatively about the academy. Snoop Dogg accused them of not recognizing “real MCs” since Macklemore won a Grammy, and artists like Tupac, Notorious BIG and Run-DMC are without it. Many agree with him, but the academy still has reasons to take Snoop off the list.
Martina McBride – 14 nominations
Country singer Martina is another nominee who is yet to receive the award. Even though she has won various awards and sold 14 million albums, Martina still remains without a Grammy award. But McBride is amazingly famous when it comes to country music. Her 1996 album Amazing Grace was well received. It was nominated for a Grammy but didn’t win. Fans don’t need an award to recognize a quality music product. She is one of the most successful country singers of all time due to her many successes since the 1990s. But despite her success, there’s nothing quite like winning a Grammy.
Bjork – 13 nominations
The Icelandic music star has never won a Grammy , but her work has never been widely recognized and appreciated. Bjork’s style doesn’t fit most categories the academy has. But their eccentricity lends itself to other music awards as well. The BRIT, MTV and Icelandic awards are countless in her room so many people will say she doesn’t need a Grammy. The self-titled album, which is the first on Bjork’s album list, is one of her greatest musical creations. Fans of her music are satisfied with the many genres she spans. For example, Bjork’s style is based on dance, rock, trip hop, jazz and electronic music.
Nas – 13 nominations
Legendary New York rap name Nasir Jones has many nominations, but it’s a mystery why he’s still without the award. After 21 years of the release of Illmatic (1994), hip-hop fanatics still adore it as the greatest rap album of all time. It was released in 1994, but in 1996 it was placed in the “rap” category. So we can’t blame the academy for not awarding him for this album. But after that, he’s still made more amazing pieces of music to consider for a Grammy. In any case, Nas has a huge fan base that is celebrated around the world and has spawned arguably the best hip-hop project in history.
