After winning Best New Artist at the 2025 GRAMMYs, Chappell Roan used her platform to advocate for a livable wage for musicians.

Taking the golden gramophone after her performance of "Pink Pony Club," the first-time GRAMMY winner used her speech to ask record companies to pay their artists fairly, a cause that got a huge applause from the crowd at Crypto.com Arena.

"I told myself, if I ever won a GRAMMY, and I got to stand up here in front of the most powerful people in music, I would demand that labels and the industry profiting millions of dollars off artists would offer a living wage and healthcare, especially to developing artists," she said.

The six-time nominee got even more personal, describing her own struggles after being dropped from her label.

"I was signed as a minor, [and] when I got dropped I had zero job experience under my belt. And like most people I had a difficult time finding a job during the pandemic and could not afford health insurance," she said. "It was so devastating to feel so committed to my art and feel so betrayed by the system. I was so dehumanized not to have health insurance."

She ended her speech by asking, "Labels, we got you, but do you got us?"
