The 67th Annual Grammy Awards took place on Feb. 2, 2025, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, with Trevor Noah hosting for the fourth time. The ceremony saw Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and Charli XCX emerge as major winners, while some of music's biggest stars, including Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, and Ariana Grande, walked away empty-handed despite multiple nominations.
Kendrick Lamar took home Record of the Year for "Not Like Us " and Best Rap Song, cementing his dominance in hip-hop. Meanwhile, Beyoncé secured Best Country Album for COWBOY CARTER, becoming the most decorated artist in Grammys history
Charli XCX won Best Dance/Electronic Album for BRAT and Best Dance Pop Recording for "Von Dutch", solidifying her influence in electronic music. Other big wins included Chappell Roan who won Best New Artist, and Sabrina Carpenter who claimed Best Pop Vocal Album for Short n' Sweet and Best Pop Solo Performance for "Espresso".
Taylor Swift, on the other hand, failed to secure any wins, marking one of the biggest upsets of the night. Despite being nominated in 6 categories including Album of the Year for The Tortured Poets Department and Song of the Year for "Fortnight feat. Post Malone", Swift left empty-handed.
Billie Eilish with 7 nominations also lost Record of the Year and Song of the Year despite her track "BIRDS OF A FEATHER" being a favourite.
