Last year has been filled with high maxima and some very low decreases, but music was one of several things which have reconciled Americans whether we collectively mourned the prince or celebrated Lemonade. That is why Grammies of 2017 occur in very necessary time: it isn't strict a show of awards — it is much more similar to a concert with trophies — and it gives us the chance to reflect over a year in music. That we loved also that we loved. Hardware of the Grammy can help to strengthen career and to make heritage, and also to raise the artists hoping to reach wider audience. And this year wasn't any exception, bringing us a big variety of the new and established winners of an award of the Grammy through genres.
These are all the winners announced at the 2017 Grammys show...
[Note: We'll keep updating the Grammy winners as the night goes on.]
ALBUM OF THE YEAR
“25” — Adele - WINNER
“Lemonade” — Beyoncé
“Purpose” — Justin Bieber
“Views” — Drake
“A Sailor's Guide to Earth” — Sturgill Simpson
Adele is literal perfect, but like...can...we...also give this to Lemonade? Is there a reason they can't share a Grammy? Our double Grammys? Eh?
RECORD OF THE YEAR
"Hello" — Adele - WINNER
"Formation" — Beyoncé
"7 Years" — Lukas Graham
"Work" — Rihanna featuring Drake
"Stressed Out" — Twenty One Pilots
Hello? It's the Grammys?
SONG OF THE YEAR
"Formation" — Khalif Brown, Asheton Hogan, Beyoncé Knowles & Michael L. Williams II, songwriters (Beyoncé)
"Hello" — Adele Adkins & Greg Kurstin, songwriters (Adele) - WINNER
"I Took a Pill In Ibiza" — Mike Posner, songwriter (Mike Posner)
"Love Yourself" — Justin Bieber, Benjamin Levin & Ed Sheeran, songwriters (Justin Bieber)
"7 Years" — Lukas Forchhammer, Stefan Forrest, Morten Pilegaard & Morten Ristorp, songwriters (Lukas Graham)
Hello? The Grammys are back and want to give you more awards?
BEST NEW ARTIST
Kelsea Ballerini
The Chainsmokers
Chance the Rapper - WINNER
Maren Morris
Anderson .Paak
Is it rude if we say duh on this one? Chance technically released his first album this year, making him eligible for the award, but he's been around—and popular—for years. He has a huge following and an established body of work. Yes, he's new, but it's clear he's already got staying power. Seeing more of Chance isn't a chance at all; it's a certainty.
POP DUO/GROUP PERFORMANCE
“Closer” — The Chainsmokers featuring Halsey
“7 Years” — Lukas Graham
“Work” — Rihanna featuring Drake
“Cheap Thrills” — Sia Featuring Sean Paul
“Stressed Out” — Twenty One Pilots - WINNER
“Culcha Vulcha” — Snarky Puppy
"Stressed Out" was everywhere this summer to the point that we're ready to take a break from it, but the teens just loved it. If they're the future, I guess Twenty One Pilots are here to stay. But we can't help but wish "Work" had won only to see exes Drake and Rihanna reunite to accept!
ROCK SONG
“Blackstar” — David Bowie, songwriter (David Bowie) - WINNER
“Burn the Witch” — Radiohead, songwriters (Radiohead)
“Hardwired” — James Hetfield & Lars Ulrich, songwriters (Metallica)
“Heathens” — Tyler Joseph, songwriter (Twenty One Pilots)
“My Name Is Human” — Rich Meyer, Ryan Meyer & Johnny Stevens, songwriters (Highly Suspect)
RIP Bowie. Well deserved.
COUNTRY SOLO PERFORMANCE
"Love Can Go to Hell" — Brandy Clark
"Vice" — Miranda Lambert
"My Church" — Maren Morris - WINNER
"Church Bells" — Carrie Underwood
"Blue Ain't Your Color" — Keith Urban
Congrats, Maren Morris!
URBAN CONTEMPORARY ALBUM
“Lemonade” — Beyoncé - WINNER
“Ology” — Gallant
“We Are King” — King
“Malibu” — Anderson .Paak
“Anti” — Rihanna
Beyoncé is the best, always and forever, but let's be real: Bey doesn't need Grammys; the Grammys need Bey. Her legacy is etched in stone as the G.O.A.T. The rest is just sprinkles on top of the sundae.
RAP ALBUM
“Coloring Book” — Chance the Rapper - WINNER
“And the Anonymous Nobody” — De La Soul
“Major Key” — DJ Khaled
“Views” — Drake
“Blank Face LP” — Schoolboy Q
“The Life of Pablo” — Kanye West
I mean, he has rapper in his name.
