Rapper Kanye West has declared that he will boycott the Grammy Awards if friend, Frank Ocean doesn't receive any nominations. He said this while onstage on Saturday during the Oakland stop of his Saint Pablo Tour, 'And I'll tell you this right now: if his album's not nominated in no categories, I'm not showing up to the Grammys.'

'The album I listened to the most this year is Frank Ocean's album. As artistes, we gotta come together to fight the bulls**t they been throwing us with.'


He said won’t care if Frank doesn't win any awards, but just want him to be in the list of nominees.

'All we need is a fair shot. Let the album lose, let whoever win or lose. My whole point, my purpose, my existence, everything that people try to diss me for is based on just an instant replay plot. Imagine in sports they didn't have no instant replay plot, and someone could step completely out of bounds.'

 'I don't know if any of y'all remember, I was supposed to go on tour with [Lady] Gaga. I remember, it was something where she was nominated... She wasn't nominated for best new artist, right? But they wanted her to perform at the show, they wanted her to open.'

'So the Grammys secretly changed something about the nominations to nominate her in order for her to perform in the show.'

'Now, Frank Ocean on the other hand is very vocal that his album wasn't nominated for the Grammys. Since he's vocal, no one wants to say nothing about it.'

'No one wants to do nothing about it,' he noted, adding: 'I'm saying this to y'all, because a lot of people try to make a scene like, 'I'm so self-centered.'

'...If the Grammys want real artists to keep coming back, they need to stop playing with us. We ain't gonna play with them no more.'
