00:00I want to dedicate this award to Prince, my assistant.
00:05Um, when we lost Prince, I decided to dedicate my life to making positive music.
00:13And, um, I was like, I don't care if my positivity bother you, what's wrong with you?
00:19And this was at a time when positive music and feel-good music wasn't mainstream at that point.
00:26And I felt very misunderstood.
00:29I felt, on the outside, looking in.
00:32But I stayed true to myself because I wanted to make the world a better place.
00:39So I had to be that change to make the world a better place.
00:42And now, I look around and there's all these songs that are about loving our bodies and feeling comfortable in our skin and feeling f***ing good!
00:52And I'm just so proud to be a part of it.
00:55Because in a world where there's a lot of darkness and a lot of scary s***,
01:00I'd like to believe that not only can people do good, but we just are good.
01:05We are good, inherently.
