Beyoncé, the most awarded and nominated artist in Grammys history, finally won album of the year for her country-and-then-some album, “Cowboy Carter,” furthering her dedication to recentering Black art in popular culture.

Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar took home the most coveted trophies at Sunday’s Grammys after being overlooked for “many, many years.”

Beyonce’s “Cowboy Carter” won the album of the year prize at the 2025 Grammy Awards on Sunday night while Kendrick Lamar’s diss track “Not Like Us” won both song and record of the year along with three other prizes. Beyonce, who is the awarded artist in Grammys history, had never won the album of the year prize before Sunday night.
