Shabooya
"Shabooya" is a single by American record producer Hitkidd and American rappers Gloss Up and K Carbon featuring American rappers Slimeroni and Aleza. It was released on September 30, 2022, and is considered the breakout song of all four rappers. Composition Adopting the style of a "Shabooya (Roll Call)" chant, the song sees each of the rappers introducing themselves and what they are all about in their own sense of humor, with all of them in favor of robbing men. The verses are accompanied with ad-libs. Heven Haile of ''Pitchfork'' wrote, "On the track, the quartet is like a really hard version of the PowerPuff Girls, each showing off their distinct personality. Slimeroni's over-it goth girl vibe is counterbalanced by Aleza's bubbly stoner persona; Gloss Up asserts herself with the confident demeanor of a cheer captain, while Carbon is a rabble-rouser bragging about shitting on bitches and running through their man's money."

Grammy Award For Best Rap Performance
The Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance is an honor presented to recording artists for quality rap performances. It was first presented at the 31st Annual Grammy Awards in 1989 and again at the 32nd Annual Grammy Awards in 1990, after which point the award was split into two categories: Best Rap Solo Performance and Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. These two categories were combined again in 2012 as a result of a restructure of Grammy categories, and the reinstated Award for Best Rap Performance was presented at the 54th Grammy Awards in 2012. The restructuring was the consequence of the Recording Academy's wish to decrease the number of categories and awards and to eliminate distinctions between solo and duo or group performances. The Grammy Awards, an annual ceremony established in 1958, and originally called the Gramophone Awards, are presented by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS) of the United States to "honor artistic achievement, technic ...
