Chris Brown is throwing a tantrum after losing out on a Grammy Award to Robert Glasper - an artist he says he's never heard of.
Glasper received the honor for best R&B album at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 5 - and Brown, a nominee in the category, has proceeded to take swipes at the musician on his social media.
Taking to his Instagram Stories, he wrote in a now-deleted post: "Y’all playing. Who da f*** is this?" followed by a series of laughing-crying emojis.
Continuing to mock his competitor, the 'No Guidance' singer added: "Who the f*** is Robert Glasper? I’ma keep kicking y’all a** respectfully."
The 33-year-old dad of three ended his tirade by sharing two more Stories, which he has also since deleted.
In one, he wrote: "I gotta get my skills up…Ima start playing the harmonica." The other Story contained a Photoshopped snap of Brown playing the harmonica, as he joked: "New Level Unlocked! Harmonica Breezy."
Glasper, a 44-year-old pianist, has released 11 of his own studio albums and has written and featured on songs for the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, Common, and Talib Kweli. As of yesterday, he has received 11 Grammy nominations and won five.
Throughout his career, Brown has been nominated for 18 Grammys, having won just one. His fourth studio album, F.A.M.E., won the award for best R&B album at the 2012 ceremony.
Check out the moment Brown lost out on a Grammy to an artist he's never heard of:A number of music fans took to Twitter to call Brown out for being bitter that he lost out on yet another Grammy award.
One said: "Chris Brown being unaware of Robert Glasper tells me everything I need to know about why he’s still making regurgitated 2012 era R&B/Pop."
Someone else explained Glasper is: "Somebody who has a Grammy this year and not you. You would probably win a Grammy if you stopped making 30 song albums."
A third added: "Robet glasper is a talented guy and he deserves the win!! take that chris brown."
Some defended Brown, with a fan of his insisting: "Chris Brown deserved to win that over Robert Grasper or whatever his name is. Anyone who disagree just a nasty a** hater."
Another said: "Ain’t nobody answer Chris brown question though a lot of y’all don’t know either."
