With the hip-hop scene thriving globally, certain English rappers prove that they are the titans of the art form and are an inspiration to budding rappers worldwide. And this fact has been solidified by the Grammy Awards, honoring deserving rap artists with the recognition they deserve. Today, we’re going to take a look at rappers with the most Grammy wins. Show  English rappers have been firing on all cylinders to ensure that they showcase their creative geniuses through extraordinary masterpieces. And the Grammy Awards have made no mistake in giving these talented rap artists the recognition they deserve. Besides rappers bagging awards in the various rap categories, they have gone on to win prestigious categories like Song Of The Year and Record Of The Year (yes, we’re talking about Childish Gambino). So today, we take a look at the rappers who have won the most number of Grammy Awards. 1. Jay-Z While he may rap about having 9problems, Jay-Z has made history by bagging 22 awards out of a total of 77 Grammy nominations. From Best Rap Album to Best Rap Song, Jay-Z has it all under his belt. No wonder why he’s the favorite rapper of former American president Barack Obama. 2. Kanye West Jay-Z is seconded by none other than his former BFF in the pop world. Having won 21 out of his 69 Grammy nominations, he also has won in all the major rap categories, including Best Rap Album and Best Rap Song. 3. Eminem Considering the fact that the best and the boldest are awarded at the Grammys, it’s no wonder that our very own Slim Shady is one of the artists with the most Grammy wins. Having bagged a total of 15 awards out of 44 nominations, Eminem has aced the Best Rap Album a whopping six times – the highest by any rap artist. 4. Kendrick Lamar The rapper behind the empowering soundtrack of Black Panther has 13 Grammy Awards to his credit, including 2 for the Best Rap Album category. He is the definition of what underground rappers are capable of achieving if they put their heart and soul into it. 5. Lauryn Hill Lauryn Hill is a true inspiration for female rappers around the world and the living embodiment of women’s capabilities. Having won almost half the times that she has been nominated (8 wins out of a total of 19 nominations, including 1 for Best Rap Album), Hill has left behind mega rap stars like Drake, Lil Wayne, and Dr. Dre. Some Special Mentions Cardi B Cardi B made history on the night she won the Grammy Award for the Best Rap Album, for it wasn’t just her first-ever Grammy win. Still, she became the first-ever female solo artist in the world to bag a Grammy in this category, thereby proving that women indeed are equal to men in every sphere. Childish Gambino Gambino’s masterpiece ‘This Is America’ became the first rap song ever to win the Grammy for Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. Will Smith Will Smith is the perfect embodiment of versatility and a talent powerhouse. We’ve been awestruck by his Academy Awards nominated performances in Ali and The Pursuit of Happyness. But, did you know he has 4 Grammy wins as well for his rapping skills? English rappers have always been the driving power as budding rappers worldwide look up to their feats.

(To view a list of 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards winners, click here.) The evening began with a tribute to the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, but by the time the last of the 53rd Annual GRAMMY Awards was handed out on Feb. 13, several other singers and bands looked something like royalty. Foremost among them was Lady Antebellum, who walked away with three trophies while the group members earned two more each for songwriting categories. Lady Antebellum at the GRAMMYsDuring a show memorable for its range of fully fueled performances, the country superstars sang a pitch-perfect medley of tunes that ended with a quiet rendition of the song that launched them, "Need You Now," and shortly afterward collected the Song Of The Year GRAMMY for it (along with co-writer Josh Kear, with whom they also took Best Country Song). But there was plenty more to come for the trio. They also took home the GRAMMY for Best Country Album for Need You Now. Accepting that award, lead singer Charles Kelley said, "This song has completely flipped our world upside down." By the time Lady Antebellum stood up to collect a trophy for Record Of The Year for "Need You Now," they were in disbelief, and possibly discombobulated: "Oh my gosh, we're so stunned we started walking the wrong direction," said singer Hillary Scott breathlessly. Also racking up awards was Lady Gaga, who claimed three: Best Pop Vocal Album for The Fame Monster, and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and Best Short Form Music Video for "Bad Romance." Never one to miss the chance to make an entrance, she hatched herself onstage from a giant opaque egg. That was a riff on her new single, "Born This Way," and perhaps her bared shoulders, which sprouted a pair of pointy elbows, were too. Her dancers and outfit gave off a Cleopatra vibe, but Gaga can't be stopped from seeming ultra-modern, and her performance of "Born This Way" reflected that; it was a warp-speed whirlwind. Lady Gaga at the GRAMMYsIn keeping with that same modernist — or maybe futurist — spirit, she accepted her award for Best Pop Vocal Album in black body armor. But Gaga also proved she can be an old-fashioned girl with a soft side. In an emotional acceptance speech for that award, she surprised the audience by thanking Whitney Houston: "I imagined she was singing…because I wasn't secure enough in myself to imagine I was a superstar. Whitney, I imagined you." Leading the nominees with 10 nods revolving around Recovery, an album that detailed his struggles with addiction but also reestablished him as a rap force to be reckoned with, Eminem took home trophies for Best Rap Album — a triumph over rivals including Jay-Z, Drake and B.o.B — and Best Rap Solo Performance for "Not Afraid." Onstage, his swagger proved undiminished. A flame-haired Rihanna opened Eminem's performance with a searching rendition of their duet "Love The Way You Lie," but it was Slim Shady who came out blazing, spitting the lyrics to that song before raging into "I Need A Doctor" with Dr. Dre and singer Skylar Grey; Adam Levine from Maroon 5 handled piano duty. Closing the show and likely lifting the Sunday-night spirits of indie kids everywhere was the Canadian collective Arcade Fire, who won the Album Of The Year GRAMMY for The Suburbs and, before the night's final performance, turned in a frothy and fierce rendition of the rocking "Month Of May." Arcade Fire at the GRAMMYsOther multiple winners for the evening included classical music producer David Frost, legendary rock guitarist Jeff Beck and R&B artist John Legend, who each earned three awards. Among those who won two each were alternative rock band the Black Keys, jazz giant Herbie Hancock, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, urban/alternative group the Roots, Keith Urban, and gospel singer BeBe Winans. And in a bit of surprise, jazz bassist Esperanza Spalding won Best New Artist over teen phenom Justin Bieber, as well Canadian rapper Drake, and adventurist rock outfits Florence & The Machine and Mumford & Sons. Esperanza Spalding at the GRAMMYsThe show also featured a few firsts, including a first-time ever GRAMMY performance by Rolling Stone frontman Mick Jagger, who helped pay tribute to fallen R&B singer Solomon Burke. But if there was also a constant, it was the annual, high-profile celebration of music that the GRAMMYs represent, and the 53rd GRAMMYs fit the bill once again, with performances, pairings and awards presentations that were full of pleasant musical surprises.
