Roddy Ricch and Ricch’s has been “The Box,” which appeared on his 2019 debut studio album, “Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial.”

The category for Best New Artist nominates Mulatto, Flo Milli, Jack Harlow, NLE Choppa, Rod Wave, and the late Pop Smoke. Milli and Mulatto really started to build momentum as well over the past month as Milli released her “Ho, Why Is You Here” project in August and Mulatto did the same for her “Queen Of Da Souf” album. Smoke’s posthumous debut studio album, “Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon,” was released on July 3 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
