The 2026 Grammy Awards marked a historic night for music, with Bad Bunny and Kendrick Lamar taking home top honors. In a showdown between two Super Bowl halftime performers, Lamar's 'Luther' won Record of the Year, solidifying his position as one of the most decorated artists of all time. Bad Bunny, on the other hand, made history with his all-Spanish language album 'Debí Tirar Más Fotos,' taking home the coveted Album of the Year award. Bad Bunny's victory speech was a powerful call to action, as he dedicated his award to immigrants who had to leave their homeland to pursue their dreams. The rapper also sparked a loud cheer when he spoke out against ICE, echoing sentiments shared by other artists, including Billie Eilish, who won Song of the Year for 'Wildflower,' and Olivia Dean, the U.K. singer who took home Best New Artist. The evening's performances were marked by emotional tributes to Ozzy Osbourne, D'Angelo, and Roberta Flack, who passed away in 2025. Lauryn Hill, Post Malone, and a star-studded lineup paid homage to the late artists with powerful renditions of their classic hits. Host Trevor Noah took his final bow as Grammys host after six consecutive appearances, leaving a lasting impression with his light touch and humor. The ceremony also saw a sea of black-and-white pins reading 'ICE Out' on the red carpet, as artists like Justin Bieber and Kehlani showed their support for immigration rights.
