2006 - Kanye West - Late Registration

Grammy Awards Best Rap Album Winners

From Henry Adaso, About.com

Look no further than the Best Rap Album category for proof that 2006 was the year of Kanye West. West executive-produced two of the five albums nominated for a Grammy that year: his sophomore LP Late Registration and Common's Be. In addition to a much-deserved win for Best Rap Album, Kanye walked home with the Best Rap Solo Performance and Best Rap Song categories for "Gold Digger" and "Diamonds (From Sierra Leone)" respectively.

Other Nominees:
  • Common - Be
  • Missy Elliott - The Cookbook
  • Eminem - Encore
  • 50 Cent - The Massacre
