Jacob Collier Wins Best Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals at The 2021 Grammy Awards
British singer-songwriter Jacob Collier was nominated for the 2021 Grammy Awards for Album of the Year with “Djesse Vol. 3”, Best R&B Performance with “All I Need” featuring Ty Dolla Sign and Mahalia, and Best Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals with “He Won't Hold You”.
Eventually, he won the Best Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals for the third time, following the 2017 and the 2020. He became the first British artist to win a Grammy Award for each of his albums as of 2021.
Jacob Collier shared on social media, “What a day!! My 5th Grammy – my heart is full and my mind exploded. To be a part of the occasion was a profound honour, and to participate in the main ceremony was simply extraordinary. Presenting an award, and sitting amongst the nominees in that small, chilly outdoor socially distanced space, there was so much mutual respect and love. It emphasised to me how deeply human we all are, all of us figuring it out as we go along, navigating the world in our own way. It felt so cathartic after the year we have all had – surreal and joyous. I'll remember it for the rest of my life.”- FyGlD7QyLzQ
