Grammy Awards 2026: The Complete List Of Winners

LOS ANGELES, CA — Music’s biggest night struck a chord Sunday at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, setting the tone for an evening of standout wins. The ceremony reverberated with high‑stakes suspense and career‑defining moments as the Recording Academy unveiled its 2026 winners inside a charged Crypto.com Arena.

Bad Bunny, the global force behind one of 2025’s biggest‑selling albums, “Debí Tirar Más Fotos,” capped his remarkable run with a historic Album of the Year win. The 31‑year‑old Puerto Rican star became the first Latin artist to claim the Grammys’ top prize in the event’s 68‑year history, a watershed moment that reshaped the night’s narrative and underscored his far‑reaching cultural impact. By evening’s end, he had collected three awards, marking one of the strongest showings of his career.

Kendrick Lamar, the night’s most nominated artist, added another landmark to his storied résumé when he earned his second consecutive Record of the Year trophy — this time alongside SZA for their lovelorn duet “Luther.”

Moments earlier, Lamar had also captured Best Rap Album for “GNX,” further solidifying the project’s status as one of his most ambitious and critically acclaimed works. With additional victories across genre categories, he closed the night as its most‑decorated artist with five awards — extending his lead as the most‑awarded rapper in Grammy history.

A major shift came when Billie Eilish and Finneas claimed Song of the Year for “WILDFLOWER,” marking one of the night’s most closely watched victories and altering expectations for the remaining General Field categories.

In another headline‑making moment, Olivia Dean captured Best New Artist, prevailing in a fiercely competitive field and solidifying her status as one of the year’s most significant breakout voices.

One of the night’s most striking artistic achievements came from an unexpected corner of the industry: “Golden” — the soaring anthem from “KPop Demon Hunters,” written by EJAE & Mark Sonnenblick and performed by HUNTR/X: EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami — won Best Song Written for Visual Media, marking the first‑ever Grammy win for the K‑pop genre in this category.

Bringing the evening toward its close, Trevor Noah’s sixth and final year as host offered wit, ease and a sense of gratitude. His farewell threaded through the ceremony with understated grace, marking the end of an era defined by steady, sharp‑witted stewardship.
