Singer, Songwriter and Producer, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds didn’t get the Grammys recognition he expected this past weekend. The legend found himself in an awkward situation outside of the Grammy's red carpet while speaking with Associated Press reporters Leslie Ambriz and Krysta Fauria. In the middle of Edmonds’ interview, Fauria spotted best new artist nominee Chappell Roan making her way down the red carpet. Ignoring Edmonds, Fauria leaned to the side shouting, “Chappell, Chappell!” and speaking over Edmonds. Edmonds turned and saw what was happening, smiled and said, “Go do that,” before stepping aside to let the reporters interview the “Pink Pony Club” singer. The team and listeners held a discussion about how older artists get treated once new ones crop up.
