Grammys 2021

The 63rd annual grammys was full of historic and empowering moments such as. 

Beyoncé has set a new record at the Grammy Awards with her 28th win.

Beyoncé is now the most-awarded woman in Grammys history, overtaking bluegrass singer Alison Krauss.

“I am so honoured, I’m so excited,” she said while accepting her record-breaking trophy, for best R&B performance.

Beyoncé was also part of another historic moment – when Megan Thee Stallion became the first female artist to win the best rap song award.

The Houston musician picked up the prize for her breakout hit Savage (Remix), on which Beyoncé delivers a guest verse.

Byoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy Carter was also a grammy recepantant for her part in her mothers song brown skin girl. Making her one of the youngest people to win a grammy.

Taylor Swift also made history at Sunday’s ceremony, by becoming the first female artist ever to win album of the year three times.

The star was rewarded for her lockdown album Folklore – after previously winning with Fearless in 2010 and the pop opus 1989 in 2016.

Only three other artists have ever won the album of the year prize three times: Frank Sinatra, Paul Simon and Stevie Wonder.

R&B singer H.E.R. won song of the year for I Can’t Breathe, which quotes the last words of George Floyd. Floyd died while being arrested by police in Minneapolis last year. His death, along with the death of Breonna Taylor, sparked a global wave of protests.

Accepting the prize, H.E.R. said she never imagined “that my fear and my pain would turn into impact”.
