00:00 We're here with Judith Hill at the Number Ones party. How does it feel being here tonight?

00:08 Is there any songs this year that you've been loving that you hope take big wins at the Grammys?

00:12 Oh man, well I love John Batiste. I love Kendrick Lamar, Hillbillies. I love,

00:17 there's a lot of really great things out there I'm looking forward to.

00:20 I mean John Batiste, he's so good and he gets so many Grammys. Remember that year that he like

00:24 swept? He got album of the year and everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:27 So well deserved. And so when you get into a songwriting headspace, what is the first thing

00:32 you think of when you sit down? Is it the lyrics, the melody, the feeling? What is it or is it

00:37 different every time? I think it's usually the lyrics and the feeling. What is the message I'm

00:42 trying to convey to the world? Yeah, and I always ask this question because I always find it so

00:46 interesting. Are happy songs easier to write or sad songs easier to write?

00:50 Sad songs are easier to write. Yeah, because you're more emotional. You're ready to let it

00:54 all out. They're very authentic. Yeah. And what are you looking forward to tonight?
