Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice and Lil Uzi Vert Nominated for Best Rap Song at 2024 Grammy Awards
On Friday (Nov. 10), Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice snagged a Best Rap Song nomination for their song "Barbie World," off the Barbie soundtrack. Doja Cat earned a nomination as well for her Scarlet track "Attention." Lil Uzi Vert's "Just Wanna Rock," Drake and 21 Savage's "Rich Flex" and Killer Mike's "Scientists & Engineers" with André 3000 and Future also earned nominations.
Nicki's nod in a rap category is noteworthy after she criticized the Grammy Awards committee last year for not including her Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single "Super Freaky Girl" in any rap category. The song was instead included in the Pop Song category.
