Quick Scoop: Lil Wayne & The Grammys

Lil Wayne’s Grammy story really took off in 2009, when he had a massive night off the back of Tha Carter III. That year alone he picked up 4 Grammys in rap categories, cementing his status as one of the defining rappers of his era.

Here’s how his 5 Grammys break down:

  • Best Rap Album – Tha Carter III (2009).
  • Best Rap Song – “Lollipop” (feat. Static Major) (2009).
  • Best Rap Solo Performance – “A Milli” (2009).
  • Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group – “Swagga Like Us” (with T.I., Jay-Z, Kanye West) (2009).
  • Best Rap Performance – “No Problem” (Chance the Rapper feat. Lil Wayne & 2 Chainz) (2017), where Wayne appears as a featured artist.

So while people often remember the huge “Tha Carter III” sweep in 2009, that later feature on “No Problem” quietly pushed his total up to 5 Grammys.
