Not to say that Adele’s album didn’t have any of those things, but I only heard it, I think, once. ‘Coloring Book’ would be a strong contender for album of the year, too. I’m not coming for Beyonce at all. She will be nominated but I’m just saying, why not ‘Coloring Book’ for album of the year?”

And it’s a visual album. As a songwriter, when I first watched ‘Lemonade’, I was so moved.”
