A voice can be heard on the video asking, “Are you serious? How the f*** is that?
Michael, Killer Mike’s sixth studio album, was named best rap album; Scientists and Engineers, one of his songs, was named best rap song and best rap performance.
The 48-year-old rapper stated, “This is for all the people who think you’re too old to rap… we keep hip-hop alive,” as he accepted his Grammy awards on stage. Never, ever give up on your passion.”
He continued: “You cannot tell me dreams do not come true.”
An arrest was made at the awards ceremony, a Los Angeles Police Department spokesman informed the PA news agency, though they would not identify the man.
They stated: “A male adult was taken into custody by police this afternoon just after four o’clock due to a physical altercation that took place inside the Crypto.com Arena.
“They removed the person from the event while handcuffing him, and he is presently being questioned by authorities.”
“If the individual is booked and arrested, then that’s when the identity will be available on that individual.”
Requests for comment from the rapper’s representatives have not yet been answered.
