00:00 I'm hanging out with Coco Jones, Grammy nominee.
00:03 I am so proud of you.
00:04 I remember when I first interviewed you in ICU, got on the Hot 100, and now, Best New
00:09 Artist nominee, like, what's going on?
00:11 You're good look, keep coming around.
00:12 Listen, that's what I gotta do, I gotta bring you the good look.
00:14 You are my favorite color today, come on.
00:16 Hey.
00:17 Stop it.
00:18 Now, what's the journey been like from there?
00:19 Um, challenging, but I think very rewarding, you know?
00:22 I feel like I had to learn myself, and that took way more time than I thought that I ever
00:27 needed, so I'm really looking back grateful.
00:29 And I love that, like, it's not just you, there's this movement of R&B making such a
00:33 comeback since the Victoria Monét.
00:35 How do you feel about the state of R&B right now?
00:36 I'm really, really, really honored to be one of the women that is pioneering R&B.
00:40 I think it's a different time, and so to modernize R&B and make it feel limitless is a real,
00:46 real skill.
00:47 Yeah, and I mean, I saw you over there talking to Victoria.
00:50 You maybe ever get a little collaboration going on?
00:53 I would love that.
00:54 I love her.
00:55 You know what's funny?
00:56 I'm so excited because she wrote on my debut EP when I was a teen.
00:59 Wow, you're kidding me!
01:00 Yeah, so I was literally 14 and she wrote one of the songs for me.
01:03 Wow, we gotta bring it back!
01:04 Hello?
01:05 Hello?
01:06 We've been ahead!
01:07 Y'all just got here.
01:08 And are you gonna have a new project coming, a full-length?
01:11 What can we expect?
01:12 I'm working on my album, and the goal is this summer.
01:14 Summer release.
01:15 Okay, a little summer bop.
01:16 You know.
01:17 And then, it's Best New Artist, you're at the party, fast forward to Sunday, what happens
01:22 if you win?
01:23 Well, I'm going to celebrate by eating a large, large sum of food because I've been
01:28 on my skin team trying to make sure that I give Grammy luck.
01:31 I mean, you are!
01:32 Thank you!
01:33 So what's the item, though?
01:34 I need to know what you're gonna eat.
01:35 I want a large bowl of ramen, and then for dessert, I want a side of fries, because I
01:38 don't like sweets.
01:39 Alright, I love that.
01:41 Side of fries for dessert.
01:42 Thank you so much.
01:43 Have fun inside, I can't wait to see you perform!
