The singer received four nominations for this year’s event, including song of the year for the enlarged, re-recorded version of All Too Well. However, she was unable to win. Harry Styles came in beautifully patterned dungarees with his inkwork on display.
Brandi Carlile was nominated for numerous awards, including album and record of the year. After winning an early award for best rock performance, the suited and booted singer-songwriter reflected on how she had achieved success by defying her mother’s advice.
Bebe Rexha was nominated for best dance/electronic recording for her collaboration with David Guetta; I’m Good (Blue). Despite this, she walked the red carpet in her pink, plunging gown. It was all white for Shaggy, who was nominated for best reggae album for Compton.
Best Moments Of The Grammy Awards 2023
In Los Angeles’ Crypto.com arena, Bad Bunny recreated a Puerto Rican carnival. His mashup of El Apagón and Después De La Playa featured pyrotechnics, scores of dancers, and cabezudos, the “bighead” puppets that march through San Juan every January.
Un Verano Sin Ti, which topped the U.S. charts for 13 weeks last year, earned the best Música Urbana album award. Brandi Carlile performed Americana, while Lizzo performed Special with a gospel twist. She eventually won the record of the year for About Damn Time.
Olivia Newton-John, Irene Cara, David Crosby, and Jeff Beck received heartfelt tributes in the in-memoriam section. Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt, and Mick Fleetwood sang Christine McVie’s Songbird, while Kacey Musgraves paid tribute to Loretta Lynn, the “Queen of Country.”
Quavo sang Without You, a song he created after Takeoff’s passing. Celebrating 50 years of hip-hop, almost two dozen rap icons took the stage. Grandmaster Flash’s Flash Was On The Beat, an almost 12-minute medley of hip-best hop hits, opened the concert.
Run-DMC performed Rock The Bells, Public Enemy rapper Yo, Missy Elliot performed Lose Control, and Busta Rhymes performed his high-velocity rhyme from Chris Brown’s Look At Me Now. The Recording Academy gathered hip hop’s biggest names to celebrate 50 years.
