[Db] [Eb] Thank you guys so much.
[N] Wow.
Alright, first off, first off to the other nominees in this category.
Lord, Kung Fu Kenny, Jay-Z, Gambino.
You guys are the reason why I'm in the studio pulling my hair out, man.
Because I know you guys are only going to come with the top shelf artistry and music.
And thank you guys for blessing the world with your music.
I mean that.
Can I tell y'all a story real quick?
Don't cut me off, Grammys, please.
I'm going to try to do this.
I've been drinking, celebrating a little bit.
So, I'm 15 years old and I'm opening up a show in Hawaii called The Magic of Polynesia.
I'm in front of a curtain and I'm singing songs.
My job in that show was to entertain about a thousand people, a thousand tourists from all over the world.
And I would put together a set list, like 10 to 12 songs.
And I'll be honest, I was incredible at 15.
And later on in life, I found out that those songs that I was singing were written by either Babyface, Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, or Teddy Riley.
And with those songs, I remember seeing it.
I remember seeing it firsthand.
People dancing that had never met each other from two sides of the globe.
Dancing with each other, toasting with each other, celebrating together.
All I wanted to do with this album was that.
And those songs were written with nothing but joy, and for one reason and for one reason only, and that's love.
And that's all I wanted to bring with this album.
And hopefully, I can feel that again and see everybody dancing and everybody moving.
So, I'd like to dedicate this award to them.
They are my heroes.
They are my teachers.
They laid the foundation that this album wouldn't exist if it wasn't for these guys that have written these songs.
And [G] I [F] had to sprinkle a little Mars sauce on it.
[C] And this is for them.
[Bb] I love you guys.
Thank you so much.
[D] I don't know.
[G] This is incredible.
Thank [E] you guys.
Thank you, Grammys.
Ken Arnett, I love you.
Ne [A]-Yo, thank you for inviting [Gbm] me to the Grammys.
I'll see [A] y'all soon.
[D] Thank you guys.
