There was a major backlash online after Post Malone took home the Best Rap Album award at the AMA's and rightly so.
The tweets came swift and precise calling the AMA's out for an all-out assault on Hip Hop, basically phasing out Black artists that actually rap.
Post Malone. Best Rap Album. Get the entire fuck outta here.— Karlous Miller (@KarlousM) November 25, 2019
I fuck with Post Malone. But he shouldn’t have won best rap album.... not rap...— Phoenix (@PhoenixWildin) November 25, 2019
XXL Magazine calls this backlash "hate". Oh really? It seems as though the hate is coming from the AMA's. There's nothing Rap/Hip Hop about that album but the features. This album won over Meek Mill's "Championships" and Travis Scott's "AstroWorld". Actual Rap/Hip Hop albums.
We complained about Lil Nas X not getting recognized in country now look, they got Lizzo winning best Soul Album at the #SoulTrainAwards2019 and post Malone winning best rap album #AMAs they cuttin up 😂😂😂 Grammys bout to be lit! #WheresKanye— Nathan Napalm Palmer (@RealNaPalm) November 25, 2019

How surprised are you really that Post Malone of all people won best rap album at the AMAs? 🥴— '92 Gator (@Marc_Gianni) November 25, 2019

We must first of all stop looking for validation from white-owned corporations. Not gonna happen. Second, pay attention to what is happening. This happened with Rock N Roll. We start it, they take it, then in time we'll be phased out and they become the face of it. But this only happens because we allow it. We give everything we create away.
Post Malone beat our Travis Scott for best rap album. AMA’s suck.— Desmond Sr. (@Desismith24) November 25, 2019
This guy doesn't spit one bar but he wins Best rap Album. If you think this has nothing to do with race, sorry to say you gotta be willingly blind and ignorant.

Pretty soon Eminem will be known as the creator of Hip Hop just as Elvis Presley is over Chuck Berry of rock n roll. The legendary rapper Scarface spoke of this
