When asked about being in the industry for over a decade and now being a voting member of the Recording Academy a.k.a. the GRAMMY Awards, Marion said it was an honor to be part of it, &ldquo;even just the process of entering.&rdquo; She shared that getting in made her feel like she was on the right path, "kasi para sa kanila, pasado rin ang music ko."
She added that even if you don&rsquo;t want external validation, it still helps to receive it. Being surrounded by talented creatives and having a say in who gets to win felt like a dream come true for her.
Marion also mentioned that she submitted her own songs as part of the qualifications &mdash; and it&rsquo;s &ldquo;not just anyone&rdquo; who can do that.
For Marion, when it comes to voting, she simply goes with her gut feel and chooses &ldquo;who I feel made a marked on the music industry.&rdquo;
