2020 Grammy Predictions: Rap

Best Rap Performance
Will Win - Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy "Racks in the Middle"
Could Win - J. Cole "Middle Child"
Should Win - Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy "Racks in the Middle"
Commentary - It is such a shame that Nipsey Hussle will not be alive to see himself win a well-deserved Grammy Award. This is the perfect way to honor a musician who gave so much back to his people and his community, and created such powerful music along the way. This will be a great tribute to this artist taken from us too soon. 

Best Rap/Sung Collaboration
Will Win - DJ Khaled feat. Nipsey Hussle and John Legend "Higher" 
Could Win - Lil Nas X "Panini"
Should Win - DJ Khaled feat. Nipsey Hussle and John Legend "Higher" 
Commentary - See Rap Performance

Best Rap Song
Will Win - Racks in the Middle (Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy)
Could Win - A Lot (21 Savage and J. Cole)
Should Win - Racks in the Middle (Nipsey Hussle feat. Roddy Rich and Hit-Boy)
Could Win - I'm predicting a sweep. 

Best Rap Album
Will Win - Tyler the Creator "Igor"
Could Win - 21 Savage "I Am > I Was" 
Should Win - Tyler the Creator "Igor"
Commentary - While 21 Savage has more nods, I think the critical acclaim of Igor will put Tyler the Creator over the top.
