ADELA scored multiple times on the charts with her new album PRIMA this year but she is not sure it is time for the Grammys yet.
The 22-year-old pop icon opted out of submitting her work for the nominations this year and decided to wait until the next nominations cycle.
Explaining her decision, the Nicole Kidman hitmaker said, “I think it’s a nomination you need to earn. I have so much more work to do before I even think of that. I have my tour, and I want to start writing my next album. I think I need to do all the work I can this year and next in order to really earn it. Maybe in 2028 … I’ll feel like I truly deserve to be in that room.”

Fans flocked to X and reacted to her comments, with one writing, “QUEEN,” and “And she has the best shot of winning Best New Artist next year.”
A third chimed in, “I think she should submit for BNA & both Ain’t In LA & Nicole Kidman to several categories tho for next years grammys.”
More added, “im actually glad she did that, her songs started becoming bigger during nominations period so much voters wouldn’t take her in count, next year with a bigger campaign and her coachella pop up maybe the voters will notice her as a big contender,” and “that’s a really smart move.”
While one argued, “She should have submitted herself and aint in la.“
