The 65th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony was held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 5, 2023.
It recognized the best recordings, compositions, and artists of the eligibility year, running from October 1, 2021, to September 30, 2022.
The 2023 winners include Beyoncé, Adele, Lizzo, Bonnie Raitt, Bad Bunny, Kendrick Lamar, Willie Nelson, Sam Smith, Kim Petras, and Harry Styles, who won album of the year.
Beyoncé has made GRAMMY history. Her win for Best Dance/Electronic Album for ‘RENAISSANCE’ put her GRAMMY total at 33, the most of all time.
Beyoncé won four awards—best dance/electronic album for Renaissance, best R&B song for “Cuff It,” best dance-electronic music recording for “Break My Soul,” and best traditional R&B performance for “Plastic off the Sofa”—during the 65th annual Grammy Awards hosted by Trevor Noah at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles yesterday (Feb. 5).
Accepting the award for Renaissance, Beyoncé gave a brief and heartfelt speech thanking members of her family as well as “the queer community, for your love and for inventing the genre.” In an Instagram post, she thanked her fans and collaborators and described “Plastic off the Sofa” as her favorite song from the album “most days. “It’s hard to pick though,” she added.
