After nabbing a Grammy for the “Best Rap/Sung Collaboration” for his Watch The Throne banger “No Church In The Wild” featuring Kanye West, Frank Ocean, and The-Dream, Jay-Z decided to stray away from a classic acceptance speech, and instead, delivered a great one-liner for The-Dream’s questionable style choices.
