Charli said she wanted to share the award for Album of the Year with “all artists who have ever felt that they need to compromise to be recognized and to have their moment in the sun.”
She added, “Because I think I’m living proof that maybe it takes a long time, but you don’t need to compromise. You don’t need to compromise your vision. It’s kind of the long road, but if you do your own thing and you do it well, eventually, I think if you believe in yourself enough, and honestly, if you make good enough music, people will resonate, with you and be right there with you.”
The singer thanked those who believed in her and hypothesized what her next album would look like.
“I feel like it’s so in my instinct to just not do the same thing twice,” she said. “So I’ll probably never make a record like this again. I’ll probably reject it completely and do something completely different. I think that’s the charm of being an artist. So thank you so much to the people who’ve been with me the whole way.”
