Money might not *buy* happiness, but it can afford access to things that do. Like zero debt. Property ownership. Travel. Shoes. Dining out without feeling bad about the food at home. The ability to take care of your loved ones after you've taken care of yourself. So yes. Pay me.

What’s the criteria for AOTY? To me, it has to be a project that permeates the zeitgeist. That’s transcendent. Culturally profound. That resonates beyond an artist’s core demo + moves people who it wasn’t necessarily intended to. And you’re telling me she’s done that FOUR times?
