Killer Mike Discusses His Grammys Arrest Following Big Wins

Killer Mike had a complicated weekend at the Grammys earlier this month. He took home a trio of awards in the rap category. The headliner of the bunch was Best Rap Album which he took home for his record Michael. One of the standout tracks from the album is "SCIENTISTS & ENGINEERS" which sees Mike teaming up with Future, Andre 3000, and Eryn Allen Kane. The song took home the Grammys for both Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance.




But as soon as fans were celebrating his big night, things got complicated. Videos of Mike being led out of the ceremony in handcuffs began to flood online resulting in confusion from many fans. That was only moderately clarified when news eventually came out about a confrontation back stage that resulted in a misdemeanor assault charge. Thankfully he was released pretty quicky and was able to get right back to celebrating his big night. During a recent appearance on The View, Mike reflected on the situation. Check out what he had to say about it below.
