Yesterday, J Prince encouraged rap stars to boycott the GRAMMYs because the GRAMMY committee doesn't respect their genre, drawing parallels to slavery.

He also proposed doing a big show the same night as the GRAMMY telecast to teach them a lesson.

Quavo wasn't one of the rappers Prince appealed to by name.

But he's down with the Houston boss's idea.

"No," he said when asked if the GRAMMYs still matter.

"We need to make our own award show that appreciate the real shit that’s going on in the street. that appreciate the culture, that appreciate… the best new artists… instead of a freshman class, we need like best new artists in the street whenever they come out.  We couldn't go on Freshman Class because we was a group. All these little stimulations on our artistry is lame because we’re the creators,” Quavo explained.

"It's an old language, they need to open the book," he said of the GRAMMYs MO.

Agree?
