It's not everyday that an artist apologizes for winning an award he feels another artist should have won.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis took home Grammies for Best Rap Song, Best Rap Performance, Best New Artist, and Best Rap Album. However, Macklemore feels that the award for Best Rap Album should have gone to Kendrick Lamar.
The 30 year-old new artist sent a text (below) to Lamar, 26, Sunday evening expressing how he felt about the win.
He took a screenshot of the text and posted it on Instagram. "My text to Kendrick after the show. He deserved best rap album. I'm honored and completely blown away to win anything much less 4 Grammys. But in that category, he should have won IMO, and that's taking nothing away from The Heist. Just giving GKMC [Good Kid, M.A.A.D City] it's proper respect," he said in the caption.
