Drake withdraws his Grammy nominations for 2022 ceremony

Don't expect Drake to walk away with a trophy on the music's biggest night!

The artist will not compete in the 2022 Grammy Awards, choosing to withdraw his two nominations.

As per People magazine, Drake and his management have withdrawn his Grammy Award nominations for the album 'Certified Lover Boy', which was up for best rap album, and 'Way 2 Sexy', which was nominated for best rap performance.

Sources tell Variety that the decision was made by Drake and his management and the Grammys honoured the request, although his motivation was currently unclear.

The rapper's decision comes about a year after he criticised the awards shows for not nominating The Weeknd for any awards after the high level of success of his album 'After Hours' and its hit single 'Blinding Lights'.
