I flatter myself that I keep pretty close track of pop culture, so I was surprised not to recognize too many names on the list of Grammy nominees for Best New Artist. Which is I guess understandable, given the whole "new artist" thing. And maybe you've experienced the same sensation, where you recognize names for sure, but can't name their biggest hits off the top of your head — like what was Tori Kelly's biggest song of 2015, for example. You know you know it, and it's right on the tip of your tongue, but you can't bring it to mind. I feel you! And, luckily, I'm here to help you out. You're gonna kick yourself as soon as I say it, because you know this, but turns out Kelly's most well-known hit is "Nobody Love." Sound familiar? It should, because you've definitely heard more than a few times.
For me, the moment I heard the opening chords, I was like, "Oh that's what this is?" It always comes up on my Spotify playlist when I go for a run, so I know every single word like the back of my hand. I just didn't know the actual title, because I never take out my phone to check. Because I'm, y'know, on a run or whatever. Take a quick listen to "Nobody Love" below to find out if you know it without realizing too. Chances are the answer is yes.
So familiar right? You've definitely heard it before, and now you know who it is, and what it is, and the artist behind it has a Grammy nomination. And there can be no doubt that Kelly definitely deserves her Grammys nod. This song, and the many more like it off her debut album, are the kind of catchy sound that has truly established her as a brand new powerhouse on the musical scene. Listening to "Nobody Love" again will make you not only acknowledge that Kelly has more than earned her nomination, but will make you hope that she wins.
