Tutti i vincitori dei Grammy Awards 2025, il trionfo di Beyoncé e Kendrick Lamar
I Grammy Awards 2025 hanno segnato una serata di celebrazione musicale memorabile, con Beyoncé e Kendrick Lamar grandi protagonisti della serata. In un evento che ha unito spettacolo e omaggi alla città di Los Angeles colpita dagli incendi, l’industria discografica ha premiato alcuni degli artisti più influenti dell’anno, tra cui Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter e Lady Gaga.
Beyoncé conquista - finalmente - l’Album of the Year
Dopo anni di attesa e quattro precedenti sconfitte in questa categoria, Beyoncé ha finalmente trionfato vincendo l’Album of the Year con Cowboy Carter. L’album, un progetto innovativo che fonde country e tradizioni musicali americane, ha ottenuto anche il premio come Best Country Album, rendendo Beyoncé la prima artista nera a vincere questa categoria e la prima donna nera a portarsi a casa il premio principale dal 1999, quando Lauryn Hill trionfò con The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
Kendrick Lamar domina i Grammy Awards con “Not Like Us”
Il rapper Kendrick Lamar ha vinto due dei premi più prestigiosi della serata, Record of the Year e Song of the Year, con il brano Not Like Us. La traccia, diventata un inno culturale nel 2024 e oggetto di discussione per il suo diss verso Drake, ha trionfato in tutte e cinque le categorie in cui era nominata, confermando Lamar come una delle voci più potenti dell’hip-hop contemporaneo.
La consacrazione di Chappell Roan
Il premio per Best New Artist è andato a Chappell Roan, la cantante emergente del Missouri che ha conquistato il pubblico con il suo pop irriverente e la sua estetica teatrale. Durante il suo discorso di accettazione, Roan ha usato il palco per chiedere migliori condizioni di lavoro per gli artisti, con particolare attenzione alla necessità «di un salario equo e assistenza sanitaria da parte delle etichette discografiche».
Le vincitrici: Lady Gaga, Doechii, Sabrina Carpenter e Shakira
Lady Gaga - che ha presentato in anteprima durante una delle seguitissime pubblicità il nuovo singolo Abracadabra, - ha vinto insieme a Bruno Mars il premio per il Best Duo dell'anno per Die with a smile. Doechii ha vinto il premio per Best Rap Album con Alligator Bites Never Heal, diventando solo la terza donna a vincere questa categoria dopo Lauryn Hill e Cardi B. Sabrina Carpenter ha portato a casa il premio per Best Pop Vocal Album con Short n’ Sweet, mentre Shakira ha trionfato nella categoria Best Latin Pop Album con Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran.
Il trionfo di Charli XCX con Brat e il ritorno di Shakira
Charli XCX ha finalmente ottenuto il riconoscimento dell’industria vincendo tre Grammy, tra cui Best Dance Pop Recording per Von Dutch e Best Electronic/Dance Album per Brat, l'album che ha portato a un vero e proprio reset culturale nel 2024. Shakira, che non vinceva un Grammy da diversi anni, ha trionfato con il suo nuovo album, confermando il suo status di icona globale nella Latin Pop Music.
Le performance che non dimenticheremo e gli omaggi della serata
La serata è stata aperta da una versione corale di I Love L.A. di Randy Newman, un omaggio alla città colpita dai recenti incendi. Uno dei momenti più commoventi è stato il tributo a Quincy Jones, con esibizioni della star di Wicked Cynthia Erivo, Stevie Wonder, Janelle Monáe e Herbie Hancock. Il ritorno di The Weeknd, dopo anni di boicottaggio dei Grammy, ha segnato un altro momento simbolico dell’evento. Tra le esibizioni della discografia dei talenti emergenti, la performance più acclamata è stata senza dubbio quella della rapper Doechii, che ha incantato il pubblico con uno spettacolo straordinario, arricchito dai costumi di scena firmati Thom Browne.
