Eminem is back in the Grammy spotlight, picking up three nominations for his latest album, placing the Academy in an interesting position.

Eminem’s latest album, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)”, has earned him three Grammy nominations, including Best Rap Album, Best Rap Performance for “Houdini”, and Best Music Video for the same track. This recognition comes after years of Eminem’s public criticisms of the Grammy Awards, making any potential win both a victory and a challenge for the Academy.

Despite his dismay with the Grammys, which he has voiced repeatedly over the years, the influence of “The Death of Slim Shady” on the hip hop scene could not be overlooked. Esteemed Grammy voters, who select nominees based on artistic impact, recognised the album as one of the biggest hip hop events this year, despite Eminem’s reservations about the award show.

In the Best Rap Performance category, “Houdini” is up against heavyweights like Cardi B’s “Enough (Miami)” and Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us”. And for Best Rap Album, Eminem will compete with projects from J. Cole, Common & Pete Rock, and Future & Metro Boomin. Fans know that even with a potential win, Eminem’s stance on the Grammys is unlikely to change — making this year’s awards especially interesting for both fans and the Academy alike.
