H.E.R. Is Enjoying Her Moment as a Grammy Darling: ‘I Did Not Expect That at All’

With over 20 nominations tucked under her belt before the age of 25, H.E.R. has also won four gold trophies, including song of the year at this March’s ceremonies and best R&B album back in 2019This year, the young polymath will compete in two of the big four categories: song of the year, for herSoundtrack standout “Fight For You,” and album of the year, for her official debut full-length“It’s nuts.

Oh a few! The best contemporary Christian music performance/song [nomination for] “Hold Us Together” was very unexpected. That was just something that I felt in my heart to do, and it turned out that I did it for this movie []. Then, I wanted to bring a new life to the song, and brought [Christian music star] Tauren Wells on. That’s a positive thing for me, and kind of what we’ve been going through in the pandemic.

It makes it even more special. I really didn’t think I would win song of the year last year to be honest. I was just happy to be there. I’m sitting next to Beyonce, Billie Eilish, Post Malone and Taylor Swift. They’re the biggest artists in music right now! I didn’t think I would win. So to have won for “I Can’t Breathe” just makes it a lot. I felt like, “Wow. We’re moving in the right direction.” Like if a message like this can cut across, it’s bigger than me.

Of course, there’s also other Filipinos who are nominated, and that’s also a rare thing that you see. There’s me, Olivia Rodrigo, Saweetie — and of course Bruno Mars, who’s part Filipino as well. So it’s dope to see a lot of Filipino artists nominated at the Grammys.

U know, i've never even seen HER name on billboard.

I'm sorry but this is undeserved....like her album this year flopped.None of us know her music like dat

Love thissss 😭💞

Whooooooo? Ah her

Grammys are acting like she's the only femal r&b singer

...it’s jus more history to be portrayed-made as we live to stamp our names on the next venture of communication itself❤️ (zayata)

I promise you, we do not care 👍
