California singer/songwriter H.E.R. may not have released her full-length debut album yet, but with H.E.R., the album that combines her first two EPs, she has made her powerful voice loud and clear.
Now, with two wins under her belt as a first-time nominee at the 61st GRAMMY Awards, the 21-year-old is ready to dream even bigger.
Following her wins for Best R&B Performance for "Best Part" featuring Daniel Caesar and Best R&B Album for H.E.R., she spoke to reporters to reflect on the big day. She talked about the synchronicity between herself and the GRAMMYs putting music first, and how the nominations for the project—"an introduction to who I am"—confirmed that she's in the right place and needs to keep dreaming bigger.
She also shared her thoughts on a positive shift towards women in the music industry working together and actively supporting one another.
"So many women were nominated alongside each other, and I love that camaraderie, that's what we need. We need more women to support other women," H.E.R. told a reporter. "At the end of the day, it's not a competition; there's a place for everybody's voice to be heard. And we all represent different types of women, all shapes and sizes, all different voices and different messages to spread."
