Killer Mike talks about his arrest at the Grammys in a new song and wins the BET Award for Album of the Year

At this year’s Grammys, Killer Mike swept the Rap Awards. That night, he won three trophies during the non-televised pre-show, including Best Rap Album. Shortly after accepting those awards, Mike was arrested and taken away in handcuffs, allegedly after shoving a security guard. (He was charged with a misdemeanor and released without bail.) Last night, Mike added another trophy to his collection: He won the BET Award for Album of the Year. He also released a new song about the arrest.

At yesterday’s BET Awards, Killer Mike’s Michael defeated high-profile records from Drake, Usher, 21 Savage, Victoria Monét, Gunna and Chris Brown. During his stirring acceptance speech, Mike said: “I’m not supposed to be here! I was handcuffed and led out of this building! But I want to tell you: Look to God, because I’m back, baby!”

Last night, Killer Mike also released his new single “Humble,” a fiery soul-sampling track in which he raps about being treated like an animal the same night he won the Grammys. He also raps about the next day when he got the news that his son had found a kidney donor. In a press release, Mike says:

The very next day I was in the studio. I’m as inspired as ever and just follow the music now. All of my heroes have been tied up and abused in one way or another. I just thanked God when I was Daniel in the lion’s den. I got out of prison in the pouring rain, my wife was waiting for me, lit up a joint, celebrated a little and then woke up and got the news about my son’s kidney. I believe that humility and worship granted me God’s grace in the face of this trial and I believe it was a blessing from God that my son got his kidney.

Michael is now available on Loma Vista.
