Lil B misses own Grammy performance by not checking his emails

It was a shock to many when ‘BasedGod’ rapper Lil B was beaten to the chance of performing at the Grammy Awards by a virtually unknown pop-punk band.

Lil B had been entered into the Grammys “Gig of a Lifetime” contest and widely expected to win.

Now it turns out that he did indeed win, but didn’t perform because he didn’t read the email from the ceremony’s organisers.

Lil B tweeted:

“thank you to cbs and the grammys.forgive me for reading my emails late, thats why i didnt perform i missed grammys email crazy”

He later confirmed the story to Pitchfork.
