FYC: Best R&B Song + Best R&B Performance

A soul-stirring collaboration between Pae Murray and GRAMMY®-nominated poet Ty Scott King, "Pen Cry" is a healing anthem for survivors whose stories have been silenced or overlooked—especially Black women.

Blending spoken word and soulful vocals, the track is both a release and a reclamation.

Featured in an exclusive article on GRAMMY.com, “Pen Cry” is more than a song—it’s a movement rooted in truth, power, and emotional restoration.
