Hosted by Emmy-winning comedian Trevor Noah, the 68th annual Grammy Awards lit up Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday (Feb. 1). Kendrick Lamar was the night’s big winner, taking home five of his nine nominations, including best rap album (GNX), record of the year and best melodic rap performance (“Luther,” with SZA), best rap song (“TV Off,” with Lefty Gunplay) and best rap performance (“Chains & Whips,” with Clipse and Pharrell Williams). Bad Bunny made history, becoming the first Spanish-language album of the year winner in Grammy history with his blockbuster Debí Tirar Más Fotos. Lady Gaga took home a pair of trophies — best pop vocal album (MAYHEM) and best dance pop recording (“Abracadabra”) — and Billie Eilish made good on last year’s shutout with a song of the year victory (“Wildflower”).
Bruno Mars and ROSÉ kicked off the night with a fiery pop-punk rendition of “APT.,” setting the tone for Lady Gaga’s funk-rock take on “Abracadabra,” as well as the moving Post Malone-led Ozzy Osbourne tribute later in the show. Tyler, The Creator held it down for hip-hop with a cinematic, Thiller-inspired medley of “Thought I Was Dead” and “Sugar On My Tongue”; earlier in the night, he won the inaugural best album cover Grammy for Chromakopia. Although Bad Bunny’s forthcoming Super Bowl LX Halftime Show performance (coming Feb. 8) prevented him from singing on the Grammy telecast, the Puerto Rican superstar still let out a few notes in the audience during a “DTMF” sing-along with Noah.
Just nine awards were handed out on Sunday night’s telecast, but nearly every acceptance speech featured a condemnation of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. From Olivia Dean praising her immigrant grandparent to Bad Bunny flatly saying “ICE out,” music’s biggest and brightest stars wielded their voices against ICE’s violence and general anti-immigrant sentiments. During her surprise win for song of the year, Eilish declared, “No one is illegal on stolen land.” With icons such as Joni Mitchell and Mavis Staples winning new Grammys, the legacy of protest was alive and well on Sunday night.
Here are the best speeches from this year’s Grammy telecast.
