Chika ‘Humbled’ By Best New Artist Grammy Nom As Cardi B Gives Her Props
Speaking with Ebro Darden of Apple Music’s Rap Life, the Warner Music Group signee took time to reflect on her journey from being a slam poet to rapping and how she’s landed on Music’s Biggest Stage.
“I’m thinking about all the people in my category, and it would be a lie to say I don’t look at their success and be like, ‘now how did I end up here?’ Then I also think about the Academy and the people who are voting, and the fact that a lot of us are tapped into music. Less about the moment and more about the trajectory. Which is why the phrase ‘Best New Artist’ is a thing. It’s not ‘Most Poppin’ Artist,’ or ‘Biggest Artist of the Year,’ it’s literally Best New Artist. In that sense I’m humbled to be a part of the conversation, even before being able to tour.”
The props didn’t come just from Darden. Cardi B took time out Saturday (March 14) to salute Chika and give her two cents on the Grammys as a whole.
