James Moshir P.S MMA interview on Grammy ballot and MMA training

The James Moshir P.S MMA interview covered a first-round ballot placement James Moshir says his final rap song received for the 2027 Grammy Awards, his daily MMA training and his admiration for Conor McGregor. The recording artist also spoke with P.S MMA about leaving rap for pop, building a team and using recognition from The Hollywood Magazine and other projects to help people.

What did James Moshir say about the 2027 Grammy Awards ballot?

James Moshir said a friend submitted his final rap song for the 2027 Grammy Awards and told him it was on the first-round ballot for Best Rap Performance. He distinguished that ballot placement from a nomination: voting members still had to choose which entries would advance.

His move from rap to pop

Moshir said he was transitioning from rap music to pop and no longer listened to much rap himself. He described the submitted track as the last rap song he planned to make. Asked about the other entries on the ballot, he said he did not know who they were because, as he understood it, only voting members could see that information.

Later, Moshir described receiving the news shortly after an earlier conversation on Millions in which he had said he hoped to report a ballot placement. He was confident about his chances of advancing and spoke about returning to celebrate, but framed a Grammy nomination and award as goals he had not yet achieved.

What did James Moshir say about MMA, Conor McGregor and teamwork?

James Moshir said he trains MMA every day and often watches Conor McGregor’s fights while working out. He sees McGregor’s support staff as an example of why talent and a plan are not enough on their own: people also need a team that can help them carry out their goals.

Watching McGregor’s fights during workouts

Moshir described himself as a major MMA fan, though he said he did not love fighting itself. Training is his workout, and watching McGregor gives him something to study. He pointed beyond the fight to the people involved in an athlete’s career, citing publicity, merchandise, fitness, nutrition and representation.

That example shaped his advice to people pursuing music, entertainment or a championship. He said many have a dream but no plan or support around them. Moshir acknowledged that newcomers may lack money and contacts; his advice was to leave the house, meet people and make themselves visible rather than wait to be discovered.

Moshir put his central point plainly:

You can't do things in this world without a team.

What does James Moshir watch in UFC and World Wrestling Entertainment?

James Moshir said he tries to watch Ultimate Fighting Championship events when his work as a recording artist and motivational speaker allows it. He also enjoys older World Wrestling Entertainment matches. Across combat sports, what stays with him most is the athletes’ routine and commitment to a goal.

Razor Ramon and the Hollywood Independent Music Awards

His interest in Razor Ramon began with an encounter at the Hollywood Independent Music Awards. Moshir recalled an interviewer comparing his look, while he wore an Al Pacino-style shirt, to a mix of Pacino and Razor Ramon. He looked up the wrestler afterward and became a fan. He also mentioned watching fighters including Victor Ortiz, McGregor and Floyd Mayweather.

A UFC Fight Night he associated with the White House

Moshir spoke enthusiastically about a UFC Fight Night he described as taking place on the White House lawn, including its red carpet. More broadly, he said combat athletes’ strict diets, workouts and schedules illustrated the consistency he wanted musicians and other ambitious people to practice. His advice was to compete with yourself and keep following your program, because missed days can become a longer loss of focus.

What did James Moshir say about fame and giving back?

James Moshir said fame and money should not become the reason someone works, and that success brings a responsibility to help others. He argued that public attention can arrive quickly, making humility important before recognition comes, not only after a person is already in the spotlight.

He contrasted displays of expensive possessions with the needs of people who lack food or water. Discussing McGregor, Moshir praised what he described as the fighter’s charitable giving. His broader point was that someone who gains resources should share them with people who need help rather than treat wealth as proof of superiority.

Moshir also worried about celebrities who, in his view, let attention change how they treat people. He said the person delivering mail should receive the same respect as the President of the United States. To him, status does not excuse harmful conduct, and recognition is worth more when it gives a person a chance to lift others up.

What did James Moshir say about faith and success in Hollywood?

James Moshir credited his faith in God and Jesus Christ, along with helping others, for the opportunities he has had in entertainment. He said he once doubted whether the field was right for him, but later began performing, receiving recognition, walking Hollywood red carpets and appearing in magazines.

Working on both sides of a red carpet

Moshir said he sometimes approaches publicists for premieres and award shows about bringing his own media and collaborators. He described that work as being both in front of and behind the lens: appearing at an event while also helping arrange coverage for it. He viewed those relationships as part of the team needed to build a career.

The honors Moshir showed P.S MMA

During the conversation, Moshir displayed several honors. He described three congressional recognitions, naming Loo Korea and Mike Levin; an ambassador-for-peace honor connected to the Universal Peace Federation and United Nations; an international MMA world championship honoree trophy; recognition associated with the City of Santa Ana and Jessie Lopez; and Lens of Influence and Rising Star honors.

He said those awards were not the purpose of his work. Moshir wants a larger platform so he can speak about peace and remind people to care for family and friends. He also advised choosing supportive associates, saying the people around someone can shape their habits and outlook.

How did childhood bullying shape James Moshir’s goals?

James Moshir said he was bullied as a child and told he would not accomplish anything, but he did not let those remarks determine his direction. He wants to use the voice he has built to promote peace, encourage others and bring people along rather than pursue success alone.

He said he does not hold grudges against the people who doubted him: he forgives and moves on. That outlook also informs how he responds to criticism now. Moshir believes people should keep working instead of answering hostility with more hostility, and he wants his public message to center on compassion.

Returning to teamwork, Moshir said success should not cause someone to discard the people who helped them get there. He cited Michael Jackson and McGregor as examples of prominent figures with substantial support behind them. For Moshir, loyalty to that support matters as much as finding it in the first place.

He remained hopeful about the Grammy Awards and a World Entertainment Awards honor he expected to celebrate. Those were future ambitions, not accomplishments he said he had already secured. Whatever happened, he said he intended to keep working for what he considered the right reasons.
