Young Miko, a rising star in the urbano music scene, has made history as the first woman nominated for the Best Música Urbana Album category at the Grammy Awards. Her critically acclaimed album 'Att' is recognized for its empowering Latin trap flows and contributions to the LGBTQ+ community. The nomination highlights the changing landscape of urbano music, moving away from traditional machismo and embracing female voices.

Not only for her braggadocious Latin trap flows that aim to empower the LGBTQ+ community — though that is certainly a factor — but also for her super viral hits, like “RiRi” and “offline," featuring Feid.in the best música urbana album category, traditionally a boys' club. She's the only woman nominated in the category. The Grammy Awards will be held Feb. 2, 2025.
