Endurance defines an artist more than their skills, but in the shark tank of showbiz, durability and instability, simultaneously invite cold shoulders. After the Grammys recently rolled out its nomination chart, tabloids took the cue to play their prediction dice. However, not all artistic ships are steering that anchor, since rappers like André 3000 are falling out of favor with the audience, despite a Grammy nomination and a subsequent listener boost. Instead of preparing his bags to take Grammy’s center stage next year, fans have been advising him to pack them once and for all, amidst their unforgiving troll fest.

André 3000 has always been one of the mainstays of the Grammy fortune, and this year is no exception. The rapper snagged an Album of the Year nomination for his 2023 debut solo record, ‘New Blue Sun,’ prompting a nearly 60% streaming spike on Spotify in the US. The music mogul is in the running for the title alongside 7 competitors. While his Grammy nomination called for a toast and celebrations, fans slipped into mischief-makers' cloaks, turning X into a full-blown troll-a-palooza.

André 3000’s Album of the Year Grammy nod is a formidable recognition among artists like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, Charli XCX, Billie Eilish, and Jacob Collier. Even though the rat race for the award is inevitable, André 3000 may have to take a detour because he is not only aiming to outshine artistically. With fans storming X, calling for a flame war, the Grammys are shaping up to be a wild ride for the rapper despite the event being months apart.

Fans can make or break an artist. While some fandoms are quick to turn any hate their idol receives into waves of support, André 3000 looks really down on his luck since the love he received became fuel for trolls online.

Been in showbiz since the 90s, André 3000 is among those stars who have done and seen it all. With 6 Grammy nods to his name, 6 MTV VMAs, BET Awards, and much more, the OutKast rapper has influenced a generation of rappers on his own. The fact the keyboard warriors did not cut him any slack, suggesting to "pack it up," says a lot about the time changing, since even without a reason for hate, haters are now abundant.

Although haters were not the only kind of tribe crowding the celebratory thread, his supporters also showed up right at the cue.

A few folks readjusted their preferences in the music world but ensured giving André 300 his credit, well aware of how long he has been in the game. However, the trollers were merciless and even that legendary status meant nothing since trolling was their ultimate aim. But luckily, trollers do not make the Grammy jury, or it would be as good as a hate fest.
