Kanye West, a man of many opinions, has yet another one: Frank Ocean should be nominated for a Grammy.

During an ANTI tour stop in Dublin, Ireland on Tuesday, Rihanna broke into tears on stage as the crowd sang the words to “Love the Way You Lie.” She’s cried on tour before (in 2013 while singing “Stay”), a moment that also seemed like genuine waterworks.
