Quest’anno i Grammy si sono tenuti alla MGM Grand Garden Arena di Las Vegas e hanno visto la presenza di molte celebrities, ma non abbastanza.
Se il mondo del pop ha partecipato volentieri, lo stesso non vale per un gran numero di artisti rap: Kanye era stato espulso, Drake si è volontariamente ritirato, Tyler, the Creator non era presente, Kendrick Lamar e The Weeknd figuriamoci.
In tutto ciò, a ottenere un gran numero di Grammy sono stati Jon Batiste, che ha ottenuto il premio Album of the Year con “We Are”, Silk Sonic, che hanno ottenuto tra gli altri Record of the Year e Song of the Year, e Olivia Rodrigo, nominata invece artista dell’anno. Kanye West ha dominato la categoria rap ottenendo i Grammy per Best Rap Song e Best Melodic Rap Performance rispettivamente per “Jail” con Jay-Z e “Hurricane” con The Weeknd e Lil Baby, mentre il Grammy per il miglior album rap è invece andato a Tyler, the Creator con “Call Me If You Get Lost“. Infine, Baby Keem ha portato a casa il suo primo Grammy come Best Rap Performance con “Family Ties” feat. Kendrick Lamar.
Delusione invece per Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish e Lil Nas X, che nonostante le numerose nomination non hanno ricevuto nessun Grammy.
