00:00What's up next for A&P?
00:02I love that question.
00:03That is the best question.
00:05I'm not going to lie.
00:07That is the best question I heard so far.
00:09What is up next for A&P?
00:11Let me take the mic on this.
00:13There's a lot up next for A&P.
00:15This year is very special for me and my brother.
00:17Shout out Agent.
00:18Shout out Phantom.
00:19Shout out Davis.
00:20Shout out Chris.
00:21Shout out Duke.
00:22For me and my brothers, A&P have a huge year going up.
00:25And it's going to be a good one.
00:27It's going to be a good one.
00:27I'm telling you.
00:28It's about to turn up.
00:29We about to turn up.
00:30What's up, Essies?
00:31I'm Shelby Stewart and we are live at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards Music's Biggest Night.
00:37The energy in here is electric as the industry's brightest stars hit the red carpet bringing
00:41style, star power, and the stories behind the songs that moved us this year.
00:45We've got exclusive interviews, unforgettable moments, and of course, all the black excellence
00:49you love.
00:50Stay tuned.
00:51We really love City Cinderella.
00:53It was an amazing, amazing project.
00:56Are you going to let your fans sit and marinate on it?
00:59Or are you coming out with something new soon?
01:01I'm coming out with more.
01:02I'm coming out with more music that they love, catering to them and making sure that they
01:07have as much fun and feel empowered and feel close to their roots and their self and not
01:14too far out.
01:14But then we're going to the moon.
01:15So I hope they're ready for the ride.
01:18I'm super excited for R&B.
01:19I mean, there's so many amazing people.
01:21Money Long, Jasmine Sullivan, Victoria.
01:24I'm really looking forward to Flow, the girl group, come on.
01:26Really looking forward to expanding what R&B can be.
01:29You know, it doesn't have to be in a box.
01:30It's very powerful and it can be a lot of things.
01:33Well, I just believe that music already does what it's supposed to do.
01:38It's supposed to heal.
01:40It's supposed to inspire.
01:41It's supposed to encourage and it's supposed to lift you up.
01:44And so if we're not doing any of those things in gospel music, we need to rethink that thing.
01:49What advice do you have about creating really authentic content?
01:53Just being yourself, just being creative, have an idealist, have a whiteboard in your room
01:58and just being able to cook up for, just know who you're making content for.
02:02You feel me?
02:02And just do what you want.
02:03You are going to be honored at Black Women in Hollywood.
02:06How are you feeling about that this year?
02:07Very excited.
02:09Very, very excited.
02:10One, I love that event.
02:12I think it's one of the most beautiful things to be in a room with all of those women and
02:16all of those people and everyone who feels and looks like me, who I love.
02:20And to be celebrated in that room feels very special.
02:24We're definitely looking forward to that later on this month.
