Kim Petras says it’s not fair @NICKIMINAJ does not have a GRAMMY:
“It’s not fair! She shaped culture!”
Raised near Cologne, Germany, Petras was bullied as a child and found solace in pop music at a young age.
“When I was a kid and I didn’t get along with anyone in school, I would just put my headphones on and escape,” she says.
“Feed the Beast” by Kim Petras (Republic Records)
Better late than never, and surely worth the wait: Fifteen years after launching her music career, the German singer Kim Petras has released a glossy, full-length major-label debut, filled with Eurodance and trance-informed pop music.
Not to say that the delay was her fault, or that she hasn’t been hard at work. This year, Petras became the first openly trans artists to win in a major category at the Grammy Awards for her playfully sacrilegious collaboration with Sam Smith, “Unholy,” in the best pop duo/group performance category. The same song, re-released as a bonus track on “Feed the Beast,” went No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first trans artist ever occupy the top spot.
