Even before the Grammys got under way, the favorite in the rap honors Macklemore & Ryan Lewis have already swept the field of competition. Before the big telecast of the 2014 Grammy Awards, many awards were handed out, among them were the rap categories. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis won three trophies.
The dynamic duo from Seattle have already won Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song — both for the hit song “Thrift Shop” and Best Rap Album for “The Heist.” Veteran producer Jimmy Jam was on hand to accept the award for the Seattle duo who were preparing for their big performance tonight at the Grammy Awards.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis still have four other nominations tonight: Best New Artist, Album of the Year, Song of the Year for “Same Love”, and Best Music Video for the song “Can’t Hold Us.”
