Hey AMP Family! Today on TikTok (@theampseries) we're talking about ONE thing: 🏆 HOW AMP IS PUTTING RECORDS ON THE GRAMMY BALLOT - THIS CYCLE. On this live I'm breaking down: ◆ The 2 submission slots AMP has for the 69th GRAMMY Awards — and how to potentially qualify. ◆ The 14-line package you must send by AUGUST 10 (flyer + toolkit dropping in your CLASSROOM shortly) ◆ What makes your record eligible vs. disqualified — including the AI music rules nobody is explaining ◆ The promotion rules that can get a record kicked out AFTER it's entered ◆ Exactly what happens after your record is submitted — screening, voting, and November 16 nominations This is the real process, from a Recording Academy member, with the receipts pulled straight from the official rules. If you have music released between Aug 31, 2025 and Aug 28, 2026 — you cannot miss this. If your record isn't out yet, watch anyway. This is the blueprint you'll use next cycle. Set your alarm. Pull up with your questions. Tiffany 🖤✨

Hey AMP Family! If you're still waiting on your Recording Academy Voting Membership recommendation, please comment below so I can account for everyone. I'll be checking in with the members who were assigned to submit your recommendations to make sure nothing has been missed. NEW AMP MEMBERS - If you're interested in becoming part of this opportunity but haven't reached out yet, send me a DM and I'll email you all of the details, including the qualifications, benefits, and next steps. (You MUST be a PREMIUM Member on Skool in order to Qualify) Also, a reminder that we still have two Recording Academy membership sponsorships available, generously provided by @Lisa Jackson These sponsorships are intended for members who qualify but may not be able to cover the $150 annual membership fee due next year (DIRECTLY TO THE RECORDING ACADEMY, NOT TO THE AMP COMMUNITY - and this will be due upon their approval) If financial hardship is the only thing preventing you from participating, you will be considered for one of these remaining sponsorships. Please comment or DM me as soon as possible so we can keep everyone moving through the process. Thanks! ~Tiffany

Day 8 — The Weight I’ve Been Carrying Today’s Reflection For years, I carried a shame that never belonged to me. I carried the embarrassment of something someone else spoke over my family. I carried the silence because I didn’t want anyone to know where I came from or what we survived. I learned to hide pieces of myself to protect other people’s actions. Today I realize I was carrying someone else’s choices as if they were my own. Today, I choose to set that weight down. Journal What have you been carrying that never truly belonged to you? Affirmation I can put the weight down without pretending it never happened. Day 9 — Forgiving Myself Today’s Reflection This isn’t about forgiving my grandmother. This is about forgiving myself. I forgive myself for believing I had to carry her shame. I forgive myself for hiding my truth because I thought people would judge me. I forgive myself for protecting a story that was slowly breaking me from the inside. I forgive myself for believing someone else’s words had the power to define who I am. Today I release the guilt I was never meant to carry. Journal What have you never forgiven yourself for? Affirmation I honor the version of me that survived while embracing the version of me that is finally free. Day 10 — The Story That Was Never Mine Today’s Reflection The hardest prison to escape is the story we keep repeating to ourselves. For years, I believed my family’s story was my identity. I believed I had something to hide. I believed I needed to stay quiet. I believed my past could somehow diminish my purpose. None of that was ever true. The truth is, I was never the story. I was the one who survived it. And today, I choose to become the one who rewrites it. Journal What story have you been believing that no longer belongs to you? Affirmation I am not what happened around me. I am who I choose to become. Day 11 — The Fear Beneath My Healing Today’s Reflection Sometimes the hardest part of healing isn’t the pain. It’s wondering who you’ll become without it.

DAY 1 — THE THING NEVER SAID I am Abraham’s daughter. For most of my life, I carried a story that never belonged to me. Before I was old enough to understand what was happening, I was accused of being someone else’s child. My grandmother believed that I was her husband’s daughter and accused my mother of something that was not true. Because of that belief, my mother and I suffered years of emotional, verbal, and physical abuse. My biological father was incarcerated before I was born, and although he eventually made it known that I was his daughter, the damage had already been done. I grew up carrying accusations that were never mine to carry. The truth is: I am Abraham’s daughter. DAY 2 — NAME THE FEELING For years I called myself strong, but underneath that strength were feelings I never gave names to. The emotions I carried were: - Rejection - Confusion - Anger - Loneliness - Fear - Shame - Sadness - Abandonment - Resentment - Determination I spent so much of my life trying to prove that I was different, worthy, and deserving of love that I never stopped long enough to name what I actually felt. DAY 3 — THE UNSENT LETTER Dear Grandmother, You made me fight a battle that was never mine. I spent years trying to prove that I belonged. I spent years trying to prove that I was worthy. I spent years trying to outrun accusations that were placed on me before I even knew who I was. The little girl who wanted your love eventually learned that she could not earn it. I watched my mother suffer. I watched our relationship suffer. I watched you choose a story over the truth. Even when you found out the truth you told I wasn’t gonna never mount upto shit. And while I cannot change what happened, I can finally release the responsibility of carrying it. I forgive myself for believing that your rejection meant that I was unworthy. I release the burden that never belonged to me. DAY 4 — BEFORE IT HAPPENED Before the accusations. Before the rejection. Before the family wounds.

This was an amazing assignment. I cried, a sang, I got real. I even uncovered a few things they were buried that I didn't realize. Edit: Day 3 song is Uncomfortable by Derrick Branch
