Apparently Lil Wayne’s invite to the Grammys got lost in the mail and he is not happy.
The “Lollipop” rapper took to Twitter Sunday to vent about not being invited to next month’s awards show.
“As an artist, when I see da Grammys coming up & I’m not involved nor invited; I wonder. Is it me , my musik, or just another technicality? I look around w respect & wonder competitively am I not worthy?! Then I look around & see 5 Grammys looking bak at me & I go to the studio,” he tweeted.

Maybe the Recording Academy thought he was too busy dealing with his ongoing legal issues.
The 38-year-old music star, whose real name is Dwayne Michael Carter, pleaded guilty on Dec. 11 to possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 28 — three days before the Grammys — and faces up to 10 years in prison.
The charge stems from a December 2019 incident, when authorities searched the rapper’s luggage in Miami after he arrived on a private plane, and found a .45 caliber, gold-plated handgun and six rounds of ammunition.
The federal charge was filed against the Grammy-winning rapper and producer last month. He previously pleaded guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon and served eight months out of a one-year jail sentence in 2010.
The 63rd annual Grammy Awards air Sunday, Jan. 31, 2021, on CBS at 8 p.m.
