“Salute King”: Kevin Garnett Pays Tribute to Billionaire Rapper After Controversial Call Out at Grammy Awards

It was all about his loved ones when JAY-Z accepted the 2nd annual Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at the 2024 Grammy Awards. This award acknowledges the billionaire music mogul’s impact as a cultural icon. As someone whose career was closely intertwined with the NBA, JAY-Z was getting celebrated by the players who tend to be his muse. Kevin Garnett was among the many hyped for Shawn Carter.

Following Carter’s piercing acceptance speech, The Big Ticket was on his Instagram Stories raving about him. “Shout to Jay-z for being celebrated.. that black Grammy fire… Salute King…” As KG is prone to, his message was littered with saluting and fire emojis.

The Carters stepped out in a big way for the Grammys. His eldest daughter, Blue Ivy, joined him on stage to accept the award. In the same speech, he joked about Blue having her own Grammys and shaded the Recording Academy for not giving his wife, Beyonce Album of the Year yet.
