She has many opinions on Harry Styles, and can typically be found eating her body weight in cheap chocolate.

But Beyhive members aren't the only ones who think Bey should have swept up Album of the Year: Her husband, and award-winning musician, Jay-Z also considers that she deserved it.ahead of the Grammys, Jay-Z recalled the disappointment he felt when he was nominated in eight categories in 2018, only to lose in all eight.

"It wasn’t about me, it was just like, 'Oh, I felt like they missed the moment,'" he said."Even with Bey, I felt like they missed the moment. Not just LEMONADE; [also] when Beck won over her [for Album of the Year at the 2015 show]. I was like, 'Oh, y’all missed it.'" Asked whether he was letting himself hope Beyoncé would win in 2023, the rapper answered,"Yeah, I remove myself from the process and hope they just get it right. It got to the point where I was like, it’s just a marketing thing. You go, you got an album out and it could help the sales go up. It got to that point, but deep down … Again, we grew up idolizing this. It was like one of the pillars for us.

Going on to explain why he felt his wife so deserved Album of the Year, Jay-Z said,"Look what it’s done to the culture. Look how the energy of the world moved. They play her whole album in the club. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that. The whole entire joint — like, everything?! Every remix is amazing. Everyone’s inspired. It has inspired the world. Every remix is better than the other one.
