Beyoncé’s Unbreakable Soul, Adele’s “Easy,” Bad Bunny’s Hot Boy Verano, Harry Styles’ House Party, it’s been quite a year for music. But now we finally know who needs his U-Haul to take home all the 65th Annual Grammy Awards trophies.
Bey started with the most nominations (nine), and in the end he broke the record for most Grammy Awards by a single artist.
However, when she won multiple awards at the ceremony, she couldn’t win her three awards, which is the biggest.
The song of the year, the record of the year, and the album of the year that many (EW included) thought she had in her pocket.
Announced in her final hour of the show, these victories surprised even the artist who won them. In an obvious surprise, veteran singer-songwriter (and current 13-time winner) Bonnie Raitt won Song of the Year for her track “Just Like That.” “Rehabilitation received” 15 years ago.
