At the 68th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday (Feb. 1), Kendrick Lamar set a new record as the rapper with the most career awards. He won four Grammys on the night, which upped his career Grammy total to 26. The old record was held by Jay-Z with 25 Grammys, followed by Ye with 24.
Lamar has made a fast climb through the Grammy ranks: He won his first Grammys in 2015. At that point, Jay and Ye had each won 21 Grammys.
At this year’s ceremony, Lamar won record of the year and best melodic rap performance, both for “Luther,” his megahit collab with SZA; best rap song as a co-writer of “tv off” and best rap performance as a featured artist on Clipse’s “Chains & Whips.”

Legendary composer John Williams won his 27th – best music film for Music By John Williams. And engineer Serban Ghenea won his 24th – as the mixer of Lady Gaga’s “Abracadabra,” which was voted best dance pop recording.
