It’s a Grammy awards season full of snubs, but perhaps the strangest is the story of how Drake’s “Hotline Bling” ended up missing out this year.
According to Hits Daily Double, the hugely popular tune just simply wasn’t submitted.
Apparently, Cash Money didn’t fully submit “Hotline Bling” to the Song and/or Record of the Year categories because of a “clerical error.”
It’s a shame, really, because “Hotline Bling,” while it failed to crash the Number One spot on the Billboard 100, still brought platinum certification and got stuck in pretty much everybody’s heads.
Cash Money seriously dropped the ball on this one.
