H.E.R. scooped up two Grammy Awards last night and she brought bomb songwriter Tiara Thomas on stage with her to celebrate. The ladies went to sleep as Grammy winners and woke up to news that they have been nominated for an Oscar! Deets inside…
The 2021 Academy Awards was good to singer H.E.R.
The soulful songstress celebrated a huge win after she was awarded Song of the Year for her track “I Can’t Breathe,” a very much needed protest song. H.E.R. shares the Grammy win with songwriter Tiara Thomas and producer/songwriter Dernst "D'Mile" Emile II.
During the ceremony, H.E.R. brought Tiara on stage with her to accept the award. You may remember Tiara originally sung the chorus on Wale's 2013 hit "Bad."
Peep a clip from their acceptance speech below:

”Made it to the Grammys,” she captioned. The “Bad” singer has collaborated on several H.E.R. tracks, including “Avenue” and the double-platinum hit “Slide.”
This appears to be Tiara’s second recognition from the Recording Academy. She shared a plaque she received for lending her talents for H.E.R.’s self-titled album. The singer won the Grammy for Best R&B Album:

On the red carpet, the dynamic duo talked about how they channeled the pain they felt over police brutality and social injustice to create the powerful track. Check it:
The winning didn't stop there...
H.E.R. also won a Grammy for Best R&B Song for her feature on Robert Glasper’s “Better Than I Imagined.” She now has four Grammy Awards total. Sweet.
On the red carpet…
