Kaieteur News – Guyanese born singer, rapper, Carlos St. John Phillips, better known by his stage moniker, SAINt JHN, picked up not one, but two wins at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards held Sunday night.

An excited JHN reacted to each of his awards on Twitter with the trophy and crying emojis, before calling out those who didn’t see his vision this time last year. “Two songs I wrote won Grammys today in real life,” he wrote to his 80,000 followers. “Imagine not believing in me a year ago.”

JHN released his third studio album While the World Was Burning in November 2020 with major appearances from Kanye West, Future, Lil Uzi Vert, DaBaby, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, JID, Kehlani and 6LACK. The Long Play (LP) peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard 200 chart and included “Roses – Imanbek Remix.”
