Grammy Awards 2018 Results
Bruno Mars scores plenty of wins at this year’s Grammy Awards.
So, the Grammy results are in, and although Jay-Z looked like the hottest contender, scoring a huge number of nominations, it was Bruno Mars and Kendrick Lamar who turned out to be the night’s biggest winners.
Mars actually beat Lamar to the top Grammy Award, winning Album of the Year (for 24K Magic), Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best R&B Album, and Best R&B Performance. Phew! He also impressed the crowd with a live performance alongside Cardi B.
Kendrick Lamar.
Lamar did win the award for Best Rap Album, as well as Best Rap Performance and Music Video. He made the most of his time on the podium to reference the Twitter debacle that had erupted with Donald Trump after Jay-Z called the American president a “Superbug” for his recent comments describing African countries as “shitholes”.
“Jay for President,” Lamar said with a grin as he closed his acceptance speech.
Janelle Monáe.
But the real political deal came from Janelle Monáe, who said in a speech about sexual harassment in various industries: “You see, it’s not just going on in Hollywood, it’s not just going on in Washington. It’s right here in our industry as well. And just as we have the power to shape culture, we also have the power to undo a culture that does not serve us well.”
Amen to that.
