The Grammys is all about politics, according to Trey Songz.

The singer, who wasn’t nominated in any categories for this year’s ceremony, voiced his opinions about the event via Twitter. He tweeted that “the Grammys shortchange culture for popularity every year.” However, to avoid seeming bitter, he added, “10 years I been able to feed my family and have the support of so many people, just for doing what I would do anyway for NOTHING.”

The singer clarified, “I don’t rant, this isn’t that. TRIGGA #1 album ‘NaNa’ ‘Touchin Lovin’ and ‘What’s Best For You’ all #1 on one chart or another. #Grammys ijs.”

Songz then concluded with, “My fans give me the real reward no trophy ever could, LOVE. So everytime they give me nothing, I think of you. Thank you, I love you.”
