The 65th Annual Grammy Awards was one for the books, filled with historic moments and celebration of music and audio work from all walks of life.

Beyoncé made history with her 32nd Grammy win, now the most all-time, and Bad Bunny earned the award show’s first album of the year nomination for a project completely in Spanish (he also won Best Música Urbana Album for his work, “Un Verano Sin Ti”).

Viola Davis achieved EGOT status after winning the Grammy for Best Audio Book Narration and Storytelling for her memoir “Finding Me.”

The show also celebrated 50 years of hip hop music with a medley of performers from through the generations. And a new award honoring social justice highlighted the work of Iranian artist Shervin Hajipour.

  • Album of the Year — “Harry’s House,” Harry Styles
