There are dozens of Grammy awards given out each year and that means there is no way that all of them can be aired on television, so most of the R&B and Rap trophies were given out early. Nas won one of the nights earliest awards by winning his very first Grammy everdespite being nominated 14 times in the past. He took home the award for Best Rap Album.
Meanwhile, Grammy newcomer Megan Thee Stallion pretty much swept the remaining Rap categories, winning for both Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance for her hit ‘Savage’ remix featuring Beyonc. However that wasnt all, she also picked up the coveted award for Best New Artist as well.
Speaking of Beyonc, she made Grammy history by winning her 28th Grammy for ‘Black Parade,’ making her the only female artist in history to have that number. She is now tied with legendary producer Quincy Jones, who also has 28 Grammy Awards.
One of the nights surprises came in the form of Kanye West, who officially won his 22nd Grammy and is now tied with Jay-Z for the most wins by a hip hop artist. Youll recall that last year, Kanye posted a video to his Twitter account showing him urinating on one of his Grammy awardswhich is why many were surprised by his win. He took home the award for Best Contemporary Christian Album for his record-breaking album ‘Jesus Is King.’
Elsewhere, H.E.R. won Song Of The Year for her moving tribute to police brutality ̵InCant Breathe’ and also for her collaboration with Robert Glasper for ‘Better Than I Imagined.’
