Rising sensation August Alsina was crowned Best New Artist at the 2014 BET Awards.
Taking the stage, the emotional New Orleans R&B crooner said, “I told myself if and when I got up here, I wouldn’t cry,” adding, “I always wondered what this moment right here would feel like.”
After thanking his team and supporters, the “I Luv This” hit-maker wrapped his speech with, “All I do is grind and pray.”
Congrats August!
