The 67th Grammy Awards indeed delivered a night of pure and unforgettable experience with its great performances, record-breaking wins as well as significant charitable contributions. Aired on CBS and viewed by over 15.4 million people, the Grammy Night easily became a sensation snagging the event with the second-largest audience view since 2020.
Regardless of a slight 9% dip from last year, the event has remained on its television’s biggest night. Beyond all the music and awards, the Recording Academy and MusiCares raised over $24 million in the weekend event with nearly $9 million going towards the California wildlife relief efforts.
67th Grammy: A night of history
The most astonishing news was that Beyoncé was the first Black woman to bag the title of Best Country Album for Cowboy Carter. Taylor Swift presented the award. She had also clinched the Best Country Duo/Group Performance award which, by the way, was for her collaboration with Miley Cyrus on II Most Wanted. Moreover, Cowboy Carter won Album of the Year.
An array of vibrant performances decorated the night, from the colorful bangers mashup Starbucks Coffee Me to Please Please Please by Sabrina Carpenter, to Chappell Roan singing the Pink Pony Club with a rodeo twist. Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars joined forces for a dream duet of California Dreamin’ in honor of LA and its people after the devastating fires.
“Music is one of the best ways to give back to the world.” put Alison Reese, the Executive Director of MusiCares.
“Not only did the Los Angeles fires provide an opportunity for us to celebrate artists but also through this year’s Grammys had shown the ability to support those in need,” she added
What’s next for the Grammys?
The Grammy hopes to return to CBS come 2026 before its move to ABC, Hulu, and Disney+ by 2027. However, the Recording Academy will remain dedicated to blending entertainment with its philanthropic activities hence ensuring that every music’s biggest night will continue to make a lasting impact.
