Zara Larsson is making one thing crystal clear: she may be experiencing a major career breakthrough, but she is not a new artist.
While reflecting on her long-awaited global moment, Larsson revealed that her former label considered submitting her for Best New Artist at the GRAMMYs, a move she wasn’t exactly excited about.
Full story below…
Speaking to Perfect Magazine, she explained:
“I don’t even want that.”
Arguing that the category would overlook the 13 years she has already spent building her career, stressing:
“That would downplay the 13 years of me being an artist. I’m not a new artist.”
And she has a point. Larsson has been releasing music since she was a child, with hits including ‘Lush Life,’ ‘Never Forget You,‘ and ‘Symphony‘ already cementing her pop credentials.
Instead, the ‘Midnight Sun‘ singer says she prefers the word “breakthrough,” saying:
“It feels like the whole world is looking at me at the same time.”
Honestly? We can’t argue with that.
Zara is definitely a plant that they plucked back from obscurity but I like her though. Always did. She never tried to be anything else but herself and she seems to have a good head on her too. Go girl!
Well, you are new to the US💅🏼 this euro gurl think she’s da sh it… enjoy your 13 mins of fame.
This Ole Heidi from the Hills ass heaux. You didn’t have to be nominated at all. Be grateful.
