Kanye West threatens to boycott Grammy awards

Kanye West has threatened to boycott the Grammy Awards.

The 39-year-old declared that he will not be attending the star-studded event if friend Frank Ocean doesn't receive any nominations, the Daily Mail reports.

He made the announcement while onstage on Saturday during the Oakland stop of his Saint Pablo Tour, noting: “And I'll tell you this right now: if his album's not nominated in no categories, I'm not showing up to the Grammys.”

“The album I listened to the most this year is Frank Ocean's album,” Kanye continued, adding: “As artists, we gotta come together to fight the bulls**t they been throwing us with.”

He clarified, however, that he wouldn't care if Frank doesn't win any awards. He just wants him to be in the running.

“All we need is a fair shot. Let the album lose, let whoever win or lose,” he said. “My whole point, my purpose, my existence, everything that people try to diss me for is based on just an instant replay plot. Imagine in sports they didn't have no instant replay plot, and someone could step completely out of bounds.”
