  • that started when I was about their age, maybe even younger,

  • they're gonna look back years from now 00:00:12.212 --> 00:00:15.448 align:start size:84% position:16% like "Wow, I really, I had the bravery

  • to go up onstage and do something that I love,

  • and people actually are appreciating it." 00:00:20.153 --> 00:00:22.288 align:start size:94% position:6% And I think it's a really, really dope thing.

  • I'm excited about it. 00:00:28.928 --> 00:00:32.432 align:start size:97% position:3% Any program that allows kids to explore their passions

  • and have instruments available, accessible, 00:00:35.568 --> 00:00:38.304 align:start size:84% position:16% that's just a really important thing

  • because there's so many kids out there

  • who may be the next Quincy Jones

  • or the next Prince or the next Chick Corea, 00:00:45.745 --> 00:00:48.181 align:start size:88% position:13% Herbie Hancock, but they don't have the tools. 00:00:48.181 --> 00:00:50.717 align:start size:84% position:16% And it's just a really special thing

  • for somebody like me to be able to be an inspiration

  • for those kids.

  • I think about when I was a kid,

  • and I was just like them, 00:00:57.624 --> 00:01:00.326 align:start size:88% position:13% line:0% wanting to be on a stage, eager to perform,

  • eager to be able to play an instrument

  • without somebody saying turn that music down

  • or you're just a kid.

  • That's the time to explore.

  • (H.E.R.'s "21" playing) 00:01:21.915 --> 00:01:24.117 align:start size:84% position:16% I wrote the song "21" for fun honestly. 00:01:24.117 --> 00:01:27.020 align:start size:97% position:3% I was on tour and just thinking about my whole year 00:01:27.020 --> 00:01:30.757 align:start size:97% position:3% and how crazy my journey has been, how far I've come.

  • It was more than I expected. 00:01:32.459 --> 00:01:35.929 align:start size:97% position:3% Being 21 was like "Wow, I'm really living a different life 00:01:35.929 --> 00:01:38.598 align:start size:88% position:13% than a lot of 21-year-olds out here."

  • So it's really just about that

  • and kind of like the cool side of all these things,

  • these great things that are happening to me, 00:01:47.373 --> 00:01:50.777 align:start size:88% position:13% the funny little quirks of being an artist. 00:01:50.777 --> 00:01:52.312 align:start size:94% position:6% Lately I've been thinking about my journey, 00:01:52.312 --> 00:01:55.748 align:start size:97% position:3% but when everybody talks about how much I've accomplished 00:01:55.748 --> 00:01:58.017 align:start position:0% and how much I've done, I'm like, "It's just the beginning."

  • That's the scary part. 00:01:59.452 --> 00:02:01.988 align:start size:97% position:3% It's like this is literally just the beginning.

  • I've been doing music since I could talk. 00:02:04.057 --> 00:02:06.359 align:start size:88% position:13% The fact that I've made my dreams a reality

  • and my visions a reality,

  • I just feel like now it's about taking everything

  • to the next level and continuing

  • to prove myself and work even harder. 00:02:13.733 --> 00:02:16.336 align:start size:88% position:13% It's easy to be 22 years old and be successful

  • and get comfortable, and that's not who I am at all.

  • It's not what I wanted to do. 00:02:20.974 --> 00:02:24.444 align:start size:97% position:3% I find new ways to get better and challenge myself.

  • The next few years are just gonna be even more of a grind

  • than they were before, you know? 00:02:29.949 --> 00:02:34.387 align:start size:97% position:3% And also, making sure I take those moments to enjoy it 00:02:34.387 --> 00:02:36.456 align:start size:84% position:16% 'cause sometimes you can work so hard

  • that you forget to enjoy and sometimes smell the roses.

  • So, it's like right now I'm finding that balance,

  • but it's all about elevation.

  • That's my theme for 2019, elevation.

  • My new project, it's really my debut album,

  • and I can't even day that anymore

  • because so much has happened 00:02:51.971 --> 00:02:54.741 align:start size:88% position:13% between my first project that I didn't expect,

  • but this is really going to be my official debut album.

  • And yeah, new music. 00:03:00.613 --> 00:03:04.083 align:start size:97% position:3% I'm in the studio now, in and out, when I have the time

  • 'cause I'm busy now, but yeah, I'm excited. 00:03:06.819 --> 00:03:10.056 align:start size:84% position:16% It's gonna be H.E.R. but elevated.

  • Like I said, that's my word. 00:03:11.357 --> 00:03:13.927 align:start size:88% position:13% So, I think everybody's gonna enjoy it.

  • When I found out that I was gonna perform at the VMAs,

  • I was honestly a little bit nervous, 00:03:20.466 --> 00:03:22.302 align:start size:84% position:16% and I don't really get nervous very often,

  • but it's just such a huge stage,

  • and there are so many artists I look up to

  • that were on that stage before me.

  • So, I'm honestly really excited.

  • I'm looking forward to it just 'cause it's the VMAs.

  • I can't believe it.

  • It's a dream come true.

  • I was watching the VMAs as a kid 00:03:37.884 --> 00:03:39.219 align:start size:84% position:16% like "When am I gonna be up there?"

  • And now the time is here,

  • and it's like you really can't.

  • It hasn't really processed yet.

  • I feel like it's not gonna be real

  • until I get up on that stage. 00:03:47.427 --> 00:03:51.464 align:start size:94% position:6% The process for preparing for an awards show

  • is it's gonna be different 00:03:52.799 --> 00:03:56.369 align:start size:84% position:16% because it's like okay, I got one song.

  • I have to make it spectacular, 00:03:58.137 --> 00:03:59.806 align:start size:84% position:16% I have to make it have all the elements

  • that I feel like represent me

  • because there are gonna be people watching the VMAs

  • that have never seen me before,

  • many people that have never seen me. 00:04:06.145 --> 00:04:10.350 align:start size:94% position:6% So, it's really just about really showing who I am

  • and what my artistry is about in one song,

  • which is kind of a hard thing to do,

  • but I think I'll do it. 00:04:17.991 --> 00:04:21.294 align:start position:0% I'm gonna ber performing a song that's actually unreleased,

  • and this song is just so telling to my personality

  • and who I am and what I represent. 00:04:28.935 --> 00:04:30.570 align:start size:94% position:6% And I think on that stage, you're gonna see that. 00:04:30.570 --> 00:04:35.341 align:start size:94% position:6% First time being nominated for three VMAs,

  • I'm just excited.

  • There's no other word for it.

  • It's a dream come true.

  • It's like I don't know, just watching Alicia Keys

  • at the VMAs and all these other artists

  • that I've looked up to,

  • it's just like "Wow, I'm gonna be up there now,

  • like it's my turn." 00:04:50.823 --> 00:04:52.792 align:start position:0% But there's so many dope artists that are also nominated. 00:04:52.792 --> 00:04:55.728 align:start size:84% position:16% I'm just honored to be named amongst them.

that started when I was about their age, maybe even younger,
