È arrivato il momento di scoprire i vincitori dei Grammy 2021. Dopo alcune incertezze e posticipazioni, la decisione per quest’anno è stata quella di mantenere la cerimonia allo Staples Center di Los Angeles; niente pubblico, bensì un evento in diretta in cui gli spettatori hanno potuto godersi da casa le numerose esibizioni in programma.
Tra gli artisti coinvolti nelle diverse categorie, coloro che spiccano sono senza dubbio Beyoncé e Roddy Ricch. La prima è ufficialmente l’artista femminile con più nomination nella storia dei Grammy – solo quest’anno ne ha ottenute 9 -, mentre il secondo, con 6 nomination, è l’artista maschile che ne ha guadagnate di più in questa edizione. Di pari passo vanno anche Taylor Swift e Dua Lipa.
Curiosità su Billie Eilish: è il secondo anno consecutivo che un brano della giovane artista viene inserito nelle categorie Record Of The Year e Song Of The Year.
