Good for her! But I have to say, I was really rooting for Justin Bieber this time. His song 'Daisies' was fantastic. The Grammys always have these unexpected twists.

While it's great to celebrate new talent, I hope this win brings more attention to her music globally. We need more such breakout stars from outside the usual American pop machine.

Just listened to '6 Feet Under' after reading this. It's a solid track! The win seems deserved. The music industry needs these fresh waves. All the best to Lola Young!

Happy for her win, but respectfully, I feel the Grammys sometimes use these "upsets" for headlines. Lady Gaga's 'Disease' was a masterpiece, in my opinion. Still, congrats to the newcomer.

As an aspiring musician myself, this gives me so much hope! It's not always about the biggest names. Hard work and unique artistry can get recognized. What an inspiring moment! ✨
