It is no secret that Steve Lacy has been an integral part of The Internet’s success. However, he didn’t truly step out into the spotlight as a solo artist until this year. The emerging solo act stepped into the mainstream through the success of his sophomore album, Gemini Rights. Not only did the project debut in the top ten on the Billboard 200 chart, but it also produced the chart-topping single, “Gemini Rights.” To top it all off, he toured the country with his latest body of work. Bringing everything full circle, the Compton native was nominated for three awards at this year’s Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, California.
The main broadcast has not begun yet, but Steve Lacy is already a hometown hero. The Compton native’s latest album, Gemini Rights, won “Best Progressive R&B Album” honors at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards. Complete with contributions from Fousheé, Diana Gordon and Matt Martians, the concise, 10-track project emerged as the winner in a field filled with competition from Tank And The Bangas, Terrace Martin, Cory Henry and Moonchild.
Steve Lacy has the potential to win more awards as the night goes on. The lead single from Gemini Rights, “Bad Habits,” is nominated in three other categories. The main ceremony is set to begin at 9 p.m. EST on February 5, 2023 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California.
