The 2026 Grammys are a wrap, and awards in 95 categories were handed out on Sunday (Feb. 1) — but who left the night’s biggest winner?
Bad Bunny took home the top prize, album of the year, for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, among his three awards for the night, and he also accepted best música urbana album on the prime-time telecast and won best global music performance for “EoO” earlier in the day. But Kendrick Lamar was the top winner, taking home five awards, including record of the year for “luther” with SZA and best rap album for GNX.
Billboard was following along all day, starting with the Grammy Premiere Ceremony — where 86 of the prizes were handed out — which led in to the prime-time broadcast, where the final nine 2026 awards were doled out.
One of the most-watched races was album of the year, where first-time nominees in the category Leon Thomas, Clipse and Tyler, the Creator faced off against AOTY nominee vets Bad Bunny, Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar. All eight nominees had never won in the category before — but Bad Bunny is now the reigning champ. Thomas was up for his breakthrough album Mutt; Clipse (brother duo Pusha T and Malice) were up for their comeback album Let God Sort Em Out; Tyler was up for CHROMAKOPIA; Bieber was up for SWAG; Carpenter was up for Man’s Best Friend; Gaga was up for MAYHEM; and Lamar was up for GNX.
