While On The Road at Lollapalooza 2019, the Recording Academy caught up with Atlanta rapper J.I.D. moments after debuting at Lolla.

"I like bass music. I'm seven foot, 350, I consider myself hard, when I played on the basketball court I was hard. I like the hard drops," the NBA Hall of Famer told us before his lit Lolla set.

"I just like [to perform] any song where loads of people sing along, basically. It's one of the best feelings in the world for us," James Hatcher, one half of the British duo electro-soul duo, told us.

"I'm transitioning to being a live act, so being able to sing at Lolla for the first time was a really amazing accomplishment," the L.A.-based singer/DJ/producer shared, beaming, right after her big Lolla moment.
