Monét in her emotional speech, while receiving the honour expressed gratitude towards the champagne servers and the voting members of the Recording Academy.
She also turned emotional while reflecting on her success’ journey, "Thank you to my mom, a single mom raising this really bad girl. Thank you so much. I just want to say to everybody who has a dream, I want you to look at this as an example. Thank you God."
"This award was a 15-year pursuit. I moved to LA in 2009. And I like to liken myself to a plant who was planted and you can look at the music industry as soil and it can look to be looked at as dirty or can be looked at as a source of nutrients and water,” added the Moment crooner.
She said, “And my roots have been growing underneath ground unseen for so long. And I feel like today I'm sprouting finally above ground."
