Rapper NYOIL's 'Y'all Should All Get Lynched' nominated for Grammy. Opinions?

NYOIL has been submitted for awards in Category 3's "Song of the Year" and Category 31's "Rap Solo Performance." for this track which sees him calling out rappers he deems inappropriate with lines like:

"All you fake ass gangsters y’all should all get lynched, because Malcolm X died for you to act like this and Martin Luther King died for you to act like this, and this the best you can come up with?”

and

“Ayo Chuck man let’s get this P.E thing going again man! Aye grab this n*gga Flava Flav off that coonin-ass VH1 sh*t they got him doin!”

**Credits to DS for posting the video a while back*****

If he wins it'll be the first time an independent hip hop artist has won.

I've read responses to the song and video and it was a pretty mixed bag. What do y'all think of it?

Here's the vid. For those that havent seen it, its not easy on the senses:

That's what I was thinking. Dude is kinda playin' himself using NYOIL's shine to promote his music. As if the bait and switch bulletin tactic wasn't suspect enough...

if he just said he had a track in the direction of NYOIL's 'get lynched' and invited us to check it out on his page, i probably wouldve went and copped it. force feeding folks your music is never cool.
oh and i cant believeeeeee the bait and switch thread lol
