During this years Grammys, it naturally featured the annual tribute to all the artists that have passed away within the last yearhowever, whenDrakeo The Ruler was not included, his family definitely did not appreciate it. Speaking about it toTMZ, Drakeo The Rulers brother made it clear that he was not happy that he was not included in the Grammys In Memoriam segment during the show.
Drakeo The Rulers brother, Ralfy The Plug, said It comes off as a spit in the face disregarding the facts that weve created an entire movement that generated the momentum for underground emerging L.A. artists to have a platform.
Ralfy continued, adding Leaving Drakeo out of their tribute and by not giving him any acknowledgment of his existence sums up exactly what we feel the industry has been trying to do. Erase us.
He wasnt done and slammed also slammed local law enforcement. Let alone the reality that we lost my brother, Drakeo The Ruler, the poster child for systematic prejudices against rappers by law enforcement using lyrics against our culture and violating what they call our constitutional rights of freedom of speech- The First Amendment.
Drakeo wasnt the only artist that was missing from the Grammys tribute, as fans of other genres pointed out on social media during the show.
