Why did he bother submitting
Because if he would've got nominated for more categories he would've had a better chance to win and wouldn't have withdrawn his nominations.
This a lil whiny and p**** behavior. I get it but he shoulda never submitted the album in the first place. He's pissed he didn't get nominated for AOTY and all the other niggas he sell as well as did especially with Donda being there. Slap in the face.
Gon be weird when he submits the next one tho. Stans bout to say it's the label submitting. Yea right

''He's pissed he didn't get nominated for AOTY''
People posting like they know s*** makes me cringe so bad
Way I see it, I think it’s solid that he standing by his beliefs but the ppl that worked on his album probably really want a shot at a Grammy
Them grammy niggas went to suck YE's d*** at his house cause he pissed on his s***. Lol they got more power in that dynamic to just rescind it is crazy
Nominated that nigga in rap gospel and major awards. That's foul coming from the nigga that said Jay and Bey wete buying awards

Sure what else tho. Like seriously

He was literally on the Grammy stage giving a speech saying that the Grammys do not matter lmao

Not exactly what he said but still doesn't negate anything. He just withdrew his nomination publicly clearly it means something.
I can’t believe I keep seeing this annoying ass question
Obviously the label submitted without consulting him. They do this all the time. Labels submit nominations.
Kanye PEED on a Grammy and was submitted the next ceremony. No matter how much mainstream artists express disapproval they always end up being submitted anyways because labels are in charge of submissions.
He probably did ask them not to submit his music and they still did so regardless (like they have in the past when artists clearly didn’t give a s*** about the show). Thus he took it into his hands and personally made them retract the nomination
This makes the most sense.

Explain him going at the Grammys every chance he gets. Explain him saying we need to find an alternative to the Grammys when Weeknd was snubbed ? Maybe he / the label shouldn’t have submitted . Maybe Kanye shouldn’t if he felt it’s worth pissing on but to act like it’s because he salty is dumb
I assume he allowed the submission for producers, etc who worked on the album
But then why rob them of the chance to actually win an award?
Respect the move since I dont think Drake‘s mid tier music ever deserves an award
Sources tell Variety that the decision was made by Drake and his management, although his motivation was unclear at the time of this article’s publication.
——
He was nominated for Best Rap Album for his “Certified Lover Boy” album and Best Rap Performance for his song “Way 2 Sexy” (featuring Future and Young Thug). Rather than giving a nomination to the recipient of the sixth-most votes, as the Academy did when it suddenly decided to expand the top four categories from eight to 10 last month, the voting will go forward with just four nominees.
ran out of space in the trophy room
and honestly f*** the Grammys. just another way to make the artists and their people spend money and jump through hoops for an award that means nothing.
well i guess he's smart enough to realize he isnt winning that s*** against those nominations so he said f*** it imma make a statement. I respect it
But then why rob them of the chance to actually win an award?
to him, the statement he sends by not supporting the grammys is worth more than a producer potentially winning. this way is better than not submitting at all because at least the producer can say they are "grammy nominated"

Doesn’t be call the shots??? What label are you talking bout bro??? He is fully in charge of what happens through ovosound and Warner or whatever co-backs ovosound

Yeah I suppose that’s fair. Do these still count as official nominations for though or are they just wiped?

According to the article in OP drake never submitted for AOTY category to begin with.
