Cenu Grammy v kategorii Album roku získala Kacey Musgraves. Ceněný gramofonek převzala americká country hudebnice během nedělního udílení 61. Grammy Awards za svou loňskou nahrávku "Golden Hour". Porazila tak mimo jiné Drakea, Cardi B nebo Janelle Monáe.

Musgraves ten večer zvítězila ještě ve třech dalších kategoriích - Best Country Album, Best Country Song ("Space Cowboy") a Best Country Solo Performance ("Butterflies") -, a proměnila tím všechny své nominace.

Kromě ní bodoval ještě Childish Gambino - získal celkem čtyři ceny včetně té v kategorii Record of the Year nebo Best Music Video (všechny za "This Is America"). Favorizovaný Kendrick Lamar nakonec z osmi nominací proměnil jedinou, a to ještě za spolupráci s dalšími rappery. Níže se můžete podívat na dojatou Musgraves, pod videem pak najdete přehled všech vítězů.
