Kendrick Lamar gave a major shoutout to Sacramento Rapper Mozzy at the beginning of his acceptance speech for winning "Best Rap Album" at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards last night (January 28th) in New York!
Now even though Mozzy is from Sacramento, he has major support down in the Bay Area and we were all super juiced to see a local guy get recognized for something positive- on such a major stage!
Check out the shoutout below:
Mozzy responded on Instagram: "At the Grammys tho? DAMN!!! It felt like I personally won an award!!! Appreciate you bruda bruda!!! Beyond Bulletproof 🖤 #God🆙🔝 @kendricklamar Congratulations Big Dawg!!! 🏆"
During the acceptance speech, Kendrick Lamar also shouted out his other "Best Rap Album" nominee, Jay Z "Jay for president!"
This comes one day after Jay Z called Donald Trump a "superbug" during a CNN interview!
