Women dominated the 63rd Grammy Awards on Sunday as Taylor Swift won her third career Album of the Year prize and Beyoncé made history with her 28th career Grammy — the most for any singer or female artist and tying her with Quincy Jones for No. 2 on the all-time wins list.
Swift also etched her name in Grammy lore during Music's Biggest Night for the World's Cruelest Year, becoming the first woman to win Album for the Year three times, this year for Folklore from presenter Ringo Starr. Billie Eilish won Record of the Year for "Everything I Wanted," and Song of the Year went to H.E.R.'s "I Can't Breathe," which she penned with Dernst Emile II & Tiara Thomas.
But Beyoncé's later took the nightly lead with a Best R&B Performance win for "Black Parade." That padded her remarkable career total to 28, which makes her the most-award singer and female artist in Grammy history and ties her with Quincy Jones for No. 2 on the all-time list. Earlier, Beyoncé's tied Alison Krauss for most Grammys for a singer or female artist. German conductor Georg Solti leads with 31 wins ranging from 1963-98.

The two-hour-plus Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony took place earlier in the day.
Kanye West won for Best Contemporary Christian Album and joined the pre-show winners circle with the likes of Eilish, Fiona Apple, Ice-T (for Body Count), Justin Bieber, Brandi Carlisle, James Taylor, Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande, and Los Angeles Philharmonic conductor Gustavo Dudamel among others.
Among Hollywood and media-centric winners are MSNBC's Rachel Maddow in Best Spoken Word Album for her book Blowout and Tiffany Haddish for Comedy Album. Last year's awards-season pics Joker and Jojo Rabbit took the respective Score and Soundtrack trophies today.
Three veteran musicians who helped define their genres and died during the past year picked up posthumous Grammys during the Premiere Show: Prine for Best American Roots Song and Best American Roots Performance (both for "I Remember Everything"); Corea for Best Improvised Jazz Solo ("All Blues") and Best Jazz Instrumental Album (Trilogy 2, with Christian McBride and Brian Blade); and Toots Hibberd's Toots & the Maytals for Best Reggae Album (Got to Be Tough).
Pop Smoke, who died in February 2020, was nominated for Best Rap Performance but lost to "Deep Reverence" by Big Sean Featuring Nipsey Hussle. Hussle died in April 2019.
"This has been a tough year for our industry, but I have witnessed, day after day, the incredible resiliency of the music community," Recording Academy Chair and Interim President/CEO Harvey Mason Jr said. "I truly believe in the power of music, and the 63rd Grammys will be an opportunity to help us unite, uplift and inspire."
