The 67th Annual Grammy Awards took place on February 2, 2025, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. It was a night filled with excitement, surprises, memorable performances and honoring the best music from 2024, with top artists and bands competing in various categories.
But, are you aware of the best highlighting moment of Grammy 2025? If not, this article is for you.
In this highlight, you will know everything about Grammy 2025, its best moment, winners name, nominees and so on. So, stay connected till the end.
The Historic Win of Beyonce
Here is the best moment of Grammy 2025, especially for Beyoncé and her admirers.
Beyoncé won album of the year for “Cowboy Carter” at the 2025 Grammys, delivering her – at last – the show’s most important and elusive (difficult to get) top award. She became the first Black woman to do so in Grammy history.
She also won the Best Country Duo/Group Performance alongside Miley Cyrus for II Most Wanted.
This win marks another milestone in her successful career that proves her versatility in different genres.
The superstar, who is both the most awarded and nominated artist in Grammys history, had been nominated in the category four times before but she never won the album of the year trophy despite winning 32 career Grammys.
That night was surely a night of celebration for her and for her fans as well.
