The Meaning of Winning a Grammy

Hit-Boy was asked if he thinks that a Grammy is meaningful. He explained that to him, it is a token and a reminder of the work that he has done and the things he has accomplished. It is also a reminder that he has worked with some of the best artists and contributed to the music world meaningfully as he won Grammys by working with those artists.

Hit-Boy demonstrated that as a top producer, he was motivated by the progress to keep pushing forward, reminding everyone that progress and success mean always moving forward.

Hit-Boy Speaks on Sacrifices

When he was asked how he manages to stay at the top, Hit-Boy explained the sacrifices that he makes to keep going. He said, "I dedicate my life to this. I sacrifice family time. I sacrifice personal time to add value to what others are doing." He stated that even at the top, there are plenty obstacles. As an example, he mentioned that issues such as bad publishing deals can wear a producer out, so they must truly love what they do and spend their lives on the craft.

This response serves as a great reminder that to become better at something that most other people, you must really want what you are working towards and must love it enough to spend most of your time on it.

A Lesson on Motivation

Winning a Grammy is obviously a massive, career-defining achievement. Many work every day of their lives and still don't make it. The ones that do, however, are the ones that try to improve every day. This means that they must keep going and stay motivated even when they don't immediately reach goals or see success. The producers that made it had long stretches of their careers that they weren't immediately rewarded for. The reason those producers are at the top today is because they always kept going anyway.
