American rapper Jacques Bermon Webster II, aka Travis Scott, has shared his thoughts about not winning a Grammy Award yet.
On Thursday (April 18), Travis Scott stopped by LeBron James' YouTube talk show The Shop alongside Ice Spice.
During the chat, which can be seen below, he talked about his experience at the 2024 Grammy Awards, where he once again lost Best Rap Album for his latest effort Utopia.
Travis expressed his opinion that sometimes things get stuck in old ways.
"I feel like sometimes things get stuck in like old ways."
He clarified that he does not have any issue with people winning, but he believes that there needs to be an obvious understanding.
For instance, he sold out SoFi this year, and he was surprised to know that he was the only rapper to do that.
He thinks that it is important for people to be able to easily understand what is happening when they go back in time after ten years.
"When people go back in time like 10 years from now, when we're not gonna remember this moment, they gotta go through the catalog to figure out what's going on."
He compared it to a club where there is a Grammy club with greats like Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder.
He feels that he is at the rope of the club, like Kanye West and Jay-Z, and he hears their music at the party.
However, there might be some people in the club that he does not even know.
"I think about this s**t like a club, there's a Grammy club, right? And you got Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, these are real greats. Kanye West, Jay-Z, you know I'm at the m***, at the rope like, 'Yo!' You hear their music in the party...You gonna have some n*** in there that you don't even know these m**."

During a fiery run-through of the Utopia track alongside Playboi Carti, Travis ad-libbed the phrase, "They slept on me 10 times," a reference to his 10 Grammy nominations and subsequent losses.
Utopia was nominated for Best Rap Album, losing out to Killer Mike's Michael.
La Flame had also been nominated for Best Rap Album back in 2019 for Astroworld, losing out to Cardi B's Invasion of Privacy.
