Snoop Dogg is criticizing Nas for his lack of victories, three years after he eventually took home his first Grammy Awards.

Despite receiving 16 nominations and never taking home a trophy, Snoop Dogg criticizes the Grammy Awards

Snoop is one of four rappers—Travis Scott (10), Busta Rhymes (12), Nicki Minaj (12), and the Doggfather (16)—who have received at least ten Grammy nominations but have not yet taken home a trophy.

Snoop has had more nominations than a number of other award-winning icons outside of hip-hop, such as Musiq Soulchild, Sia, Diana Ross, and Katy Perry.

Out of the 16 nominations, four are for Best Rap Song (Beautiful, 2003), four for Best Rap Performance (1992's "Nuthin' But a G Thang," 2004, "Drop It Like It's Hot," 2007, "Sexual Eruption," and 2011, "Young, Wild & Free"). "Gin and Juice," from 1993, and from 1999 "Still D.R.E.," and 1999's "The Next Episode"). 

However, the 52-year-old has not received any recognition from the Grammys for his extraordinary career.

Snoop took to Instagram on Monday morning to subtly criticize the awards presentation. He shared an image of a Business Insider story that ranked him as one of the top artists who had not won.

Just a few hours had passed since Jay-Z criticized the Grammy Awards while accepting the second annual Dr. Dre Global Impact Award when Snoop Dogg made his statement.

Midway through the address, Hov criticized the Recording Academy for delaying Beyoncé's Grammy Award for Album of the Year, even though she has 32 wins and is the most decorated artist in Grammy history.

“I don't want to embarrass this young lady, but she has more Grammys than everyone and never won Album of the Year," Jay-Z said about his wife of nearly 16 years. "So even by your own metrics that doesn't work. Think about that. Most Grammys, never won Album of the Year, that doesn't work."

Snoop shared the clip on his IG Sunday night along with a quick congrats for Jay.
