So I think that we can all sit here after the award show and realized that some people got seriously robbed of an award that should have been theirs. There is a lot that shouldn’t have happened. Let’s be real did Daft Punk really deserve all of those awards? Come on people! Kendrick Lamar got shut out? That doesn’t make sense. Anyway, here is the list of winners and losers for all you people who didn’t want the whole show or for people who just want a recap!
