Thank you.
Your success has just happened so quickly, you're taking over the world.
Yeah.
Oh, last year was a lot of fun. I went to Atlanta, met Usher, uh then met Justin Timberlake. Both Justin and Usher were like fighting over me.
Yeah. But he got signed with Usher over at one dance.
Your song, "Say Ah!" I have to like throw my hands up in a club when I hear that. You were like standing up.
Oh, baby. Let's sing it right now. Let me hear you say, "Ah!"
You didn't, you didn't press. Now you have to do it. Go, girl. She's birthday over there. I know you're thirsty. Say, "Ah!" There you go, baby. She did it.

I'm excited to see uh Gaga.
Gaga, yeah. What is she going to come up with? I mean, what's next with her, do you think? She's done so much already.
I'm excited to see like her outfits and all like everything. You know, she's such a uh independent in her self. So I'm just excited to see her. I think she's uh she she deserves all that she's getting, all the success that she has, and I'm excited to see her take home some Grammys.
Your year has just been phenomenal. You've just climbed to the top. How does it feel to be here this year at the Grammys? You're just being part of it, you know?
Yeah, last year I came, you know what, I came as a newbie, just signed to Cash Money and I was on the outside looking in, and this time it just feels so great to know that within that year I you know, I managed to have two top 10 Billboard records and an album in the in the marketplace, and make some great friends in the industry. It's I just feel very blessed and I'm enjoying every second.

No, no. It's it's it's going to be a surprise for me, too. Really?
Yeah. Few things you could say about being an artist that you most love.
