Daye won his award at the premiere ceremony that was held before the live telecast. His Yebba-assisted “How Much Can A Heart Take” was nominated for Best Traditional R&B Performance.
However, that award went to his RCA Records labelmate H.E.R. for her Oscar-winning hit “Fight For You,” which she co-wrote with D’Mile and Tiara Thomas.
