Solange Wins Artist Of The Year Webby
The Webby Awards recently named Solange their Artist Of The Year to honor “her remarkable use of the Internet as a force for promoting community and diversity,” and tonight, she collected her trophy during the Joel McHale-hosted ceremony at Cipriani Wall Street. The award was presented by artist Kara Walker, whose work also explores African American identity, and Solange accepted with a five-word speech: “I got five on it.” Watch below.
So humbled, honored, and filled with gratitude. Thank you @TheWebbyAwards and the phenomenal Kara Walker . https://t.co/q3NQbgoIFW
