Chris Brown Says The Grammys Use To Mean Something

Chris Brown isn’t breezy about the Grammys — even though he’s nominated.

The singer attacked the award show on Twitter and claimed winning one of the statues “used to mean something” but now anyone can fetch one.

#GRAMMY? This is probably the main reason I love being free to create any kind of music I want,” he began his Twitter rant Friday night.

“Too many people kiss a-- and work less,” he continued.

The 26-year-old grabbed just one nomination this year, for Best Rap/ Song Collaboration for the track “Only” with Nicki Minaj, Drake and Lil Wayne.

The “Loyal” singer wasn’t recognized for any of the music on his latest album “Royalty,” despite him tweeting his music is dominating the radio.

“If u turn on ya radio right now I promise within the hour you will hear Chris Brown on damn near half the songs I’ve co-written,” he wrote.

“The awards use to mean something,” he added.

He has since deleted that tweet.

Despite the anger, Brown ended his Twitter blast with a message of appreciation to his fans.

“I’m thankful to my fans, I am able to be the best I can without having to confirm to the ways of my peers,” he tweeted.

Brown released his seventh album last month in honor of his daughter, Royalty.

The artist has been nominated for 15 awards throughout his career and took home the honor in 2012 for Best R&B album for “F.A.M.E.”

His complicated relationship with the Grammy’s goes deeper.

The star was heading to the award show in 2009 when he assaulted his then-girlfriend Rihanna.

Brown was also recenly investigated for allegations that he punched a woman in Las Vegas over the new year weekend.
