This is Kehlani’s first Grammy win in her music career.
Additionally, the Oakland-native songstress received another Grammy for Best R&B Song, “Folded”.
“I’ve never won anything before, this is a really crazy feeling,” said Kehlani. “My first time being nominated for a Grammy was 10 years ago. It’s been a really long time, and nobody who has ever come along this journey with me I take for granted.” Kehlani finished the speech as she stated, “Fuck ICE”.
