Jamaican superstar Kranium walked away with the title of Caribbean R&B Artist of the Year at the 2025 Caribbean Music Awards, held last night in New York City.
While fans celebrated his big win, Kranium also took the moment to deliver a powerful message about the realities of the music industry. Speaking candidly, he said:
“Nobody cares about the artist. Everybody cares about a hit song.”
His words struck a chord with many, highlighting the pressure artists face to continuously deliver chart-topping records, even at the expense of their artistry or personal journeys.
For Kranium, who has delivered timeless hits like “Nobody Has To Know,” the award not only cements his status in the Caribbean R&B space, but also serves as a reminder of the importance of longevity, authenticity, and consistency in an industry that often prioritizes numbers over the person behind the music.
Fans online have already begun reacting to his message, sparking conversations about whether the music industry should do more to celebrate the artist beyond just the hit songs.
