    Prominent American rapper, Calvin Cordozar Broadus, professionally known as Snoop Dogg, has taken to social media to lament not getting any Grammy awards after being nominated 20 times.

    This comes just a few days after the Recording Academy’s 65th Grammy Awards Ceremony.

    In a post via Instagram, Snoop Dogg shared a screenshot of his colleagues in the rap industry who have been nominated several times for Grammy awards and won their categories.

    The list of rappers includes Jay Z and Kanye West with 24 wins respectively, Kendrick Lamar with 17, Eminem with 15, and Pharell with 13 Grammy win.

    Snoop Dogg, however, said that despite having garnered 20 nominations overall, he has never really won an award.

    He wrote: “Snoop dogg. 20 nominations. 0 wins.”
