The 67th Grammy Awards was an impeccable win as it featured the rise of new artistes who competed in weighty categories. It also featured the evergreen talent of Beyoncé who bagged eleven nominations. One would think that Jay Z’s chastisement speech at the last year’s Grammy Awards was responsible for Beyoncé’s win this year for the Album of the year after losing out four times.
With a number of 99 nominations in total, Beyoncé holds the record for the artist with the highest nomination. She is the first black woman in the 21st Century to win Album of the Year.
The 67th Grammy Awards was decided on through 2024 songs that were a hit. It was great seeing emerging talents like Benson Bonne, Shaboozey being nominated even though they didn’t bag awards. Their songs really made last year worthwhile!
The Espresso star, Sabrina Carpenter who caught everyone by surprise last year, Grammys did not miss her in categories. She outshined Taylor Swift and Billie Ellish at the 2025 Grammy Awards leaving them with no wins.
Mustard!!!!. With the release of Kendrick’s album last year, it was no doubt that he was going to be bagging some Grammys this year. His diss track , “Not Like Us” won him all the awards he took home.
