FULL LIST: Grammy Awards 2018 winners

MANILA, Philippines – Music’s biggest stars gathered on Sunday, January 28 (Monday, January 29 Manila) for the 60th Grammy Awards.

Hip-hop artist Jay-Z led the pack with 8 nominations but failed to win an award. Kendrick Lamar who had 7 nominations, won 5 awards, including Best Rap Album; while Bruno Mars, who had 6 nominations, walked away with both Album of the Year and Song of the Year.

Lamar, along with music superstars Bono, The Edge, and Lady Gaga, also opened the show in a politically charged performance.

With a US flag in the background, Lamar launched into the politically charged rhymes of “XXX” at New York’s Madison Square Garden with a stage full of dancers who later drop to the floor to the sound of gunfire. Lamar hyped up the crowd and hit a frenetic pitch right before Bono and The Edge appeared onstage.

David Chapelle was heard between songs with interludes saying, “I just wanted to remind the audience that the only thing more frightening than watching a black man be honest in America is being an honest black man in America.” And “Rumble young man, rumble.”

Lady Gaga quickly followed Lamar by performing “Joanne” and “Million Reasons” from her 5th studio album, Joanne

In a nod to the growing women’s movement against sexual abuse, Gaga – who has spoken of being raped – whispered from the piano: “Time’s up.”

The Grammys were hosted by James Corden.
