After a viral run to the GRAMMY stage, Durand Bernarr joins Keke to talk about the years behind his GRAMMY win for Best Progressive R&B Album, BLOOM. He reveals why he’s proud his career has been a “slow burn,” and why staying independent matters in an industry that often pushes artists to change who they are. They also get into dating, masculinity, and monogamy before a game turns into a full-blown vocal MOMENT, belting nursery rhymes with a twist and proving exactly why he’s as talented as he is hilarious.
