Killer Mike, featuring André 3000, Future, and Eryn Allen Kane, won three Grammy awards at the 2024 ceremony for 'Best Rap Song' and 'Best Rap Performance' for 'Scientists & Engineers,' as well as 'Best Rap Album' for 'MICHAEL.' However, his night took an unexpected turn when he was detained by the LAPD following a physical altercation at the event, which was not related to the Grammy event. He was booked on misdemeanor battery charges but was released later that evening. An investigation into the incident is ongoing. Killer Mike's attorney confirmed his release, and the rapper commented on celebrating his Grammy sweep.
