00:02Hi everyone
00:08As you can see it took him it took an army to
00:13Make me strong and willing again and to do it and I thank you all from the bottom of my
00:19heart and
00:20Five years ago when I was last here
00:24um, I also was pregnant and I didn't know and I was awarded that shortly after I found out shortly
00:31after which was
00:33the biggest blessing of my life and
00:35And in my pregnancy and through becoming a mother I lost a lot of myself
00:39And when I've struggled and I still do struggle being a mom. It's really hard
00:44but
00:45Tonight winning this kind of feels full full circle and like a bit of me has come back to myself
00:50But I can't possibly accept this award and I'm very humbled and I'm very grateful and gracious
00:55But my artist of my life is Beyonce in this album for me. The lemonade album was just
01:03So monumental Beyonce. It was so monumental
01:07and so
01:09well thought out
01:11And so beautiful and soul-bearing and we all got to see another side to you that you don't always
