Category: Best Rap/Sung Collaboration
Nominees:
"Power Trip" by J. Cole featuring Miguel
"Part II (On The Run)" by Jay Z featuring Beyonce
"Holy Grail" by Jay Z featuring Justin Timberlake
"Now Or Never" by Kendrick Lamar featuring Mary J. Blige
"Remember You" by Wiz Khalifa Featuring The Weeknd
Who Should Win: "Part II (On The Run)" by Jay Z featuring Beyonce
There's no question that Beyonce and husband Jay Z are basically the royal couple of the pop and hip-hop world. "Part II (On The Run)" gave fans an opportunity to get a bit of both artists at the same time, which is just icing on the cake, as both equally stand up and represent in their own way. The power couple will also be performing at the awards. It would be sweet if they could win this one together, but if Jay Z doesn't snag the award with his wife, he just might do so with Justin Timberlake.
Who Will Win: "Holy Grail" by Jay Z featuring Justin Timberlake
Much respect to the other nominees, but Jay Z kind of dominates this category. With two tracks that took over the genre last year, he has a good chance of taking the win this year. Partnering up with Justin Timberlake for this track as well as for "Suit & Tie" (also nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance) demonstrated how much of a presence both artists have made in the industry recently, and over the past years in general. And they are still coming out on top. These guys know what they are doing when it comes to creating extremely catchy songs. The duo might not have gotten spots in the major categories this year, but they could still take home two Grammys together on Sunday.
