I love Adele, Congratulations!!!
How humble of her to dedicate her win to her favorite.
Beyoncé was ROBBED. Adele speech was cute though.
Lemonade deserved Album of the Year.
Knew Bey was going to lose AOTY once i saw she had BUCA. Anyway her and Jay have a new single with DJ Kahlid callee Shinning!!!
WAIT!!! DO YOU HAVE A LINK?
It’s on Tidal sis
I am appalled.
.
LEMONADE deserved AOTY and WORK deserved ROTY.
.
Seriously? Adele, again? FFS.
.
Also, how can you nominated rihanna 8 times and not give her one? She just broke mariahs record of having the Nominations in a night wothout a single win!
.
Beyhive and Navy… Theres no point shading eachother because both our faves lost in a way!!! F*** THE GRAMMYS!
No, The Knowles sisters won, I think just your fave walked away Anti Handed
When was the last time Cierror won a Grammy?
Im not here for back and forth BS, Just stating facts…. I clocked how u trolls love to call a truce when your fave comes up short handed…. GTFOH, If you gonna be real and upfront, dont just be that 10% of the time….. This aint about Ci or her Grammy. Now go back to bed, because I wont be responding to your bitter hateful a**
Beginning to think that a black artist is never going to win Album of the Year at the Grammys. I loveeeee Adele but Beyonce was absolutely robbed again.
Adele even knew she didn’t deserve AOTY & I’m glad she admitted in front of Beyonce & the entire industry. This is the 2nd time she has been robbed. It’s all good, Bey now has 22 Grammys & gave an awesome performance!
Proud of you Queen Bey ?????
That doesn’t mean sh**. She just said that for the sake of it, the fact remains that beyonce lost and she shouldn’t have! Lemonade deserved AOTY and WORK deserved ROTY.
.
Once again… the grammys prove that commercial success is what drives their choice of wins hence why VIEWS and PURPOSE were nominated!
BEST PERFORMANCE! BEY & CHANCE THE RAPPER w/ Tamel Mann!
–
Adele speeches are so sincere, and I just love her for being her… That performance was forgiven by the end of the night!
–
And Nobody else matters…. Worst grammys EVER! It was a snoozefest!
–
Looks Like Anti-Biotics couldnt purchase anything tonight….. Kiiiii
I Stan for Adele and Bey and think Adele should have gotten the song awards and Beyoncé album. I wouldn’t go as far as to say she was robbed but I was prettt shocked.
Wow Adele really swept up. How sweet of her to shout out Beyoncé. As annoyed as I wanted to be, if I made it and saw Beyoncé sitting there I would do the same thing she inspires me as well. Happy for drake and chance and everyone honestly whether they won or not, but I must say stop sleeping on Riri. That album was pure fire!!
yes so happy Adele won against those 2 I mean I wouldn’t of mined rihanna winning. 25 was a great album and is a way better singer than Beyonce. Lemonade was a mess of an album try hard album actually.
She’s not a better singer than Beyonce. In order for Adele to be a better singer than Beyonce, she would have to first work on her pitch control. She was pitchy and off key at one point during her performance. We all saw it. So keep it cute !
Sit please. Adele smashed beyonce vocally so just stop.
Word. These kids are delusional. They really think Adele should have lost–this woman is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Noone can dispute her authenticity.
Now just waiting on an Adele Bey duet to snatch me bald…permanently.
I don’t know about that one. Rememerry what happened when Alicia Keys and Beyonce worked together and they’re both great artist and were really in their prime.
Clean up Adele, yes! All the major awards went to her.
Political garbage. Everything went to adele and david bowie as expected
Meanwhile your girl Rihanna was nominated 8 times and won 0.
Meanwhile, ANTI is still relvsnt on the charts a year later and LEMONADE is where? Plus your girl took like 7 losses so take your two minor wins and go 🙂
@Keri
Bey won 2 Grammys & Adele admitted in front Bey that she didn’t deserve her win! Meanwhile Rihanna got dressed up just to sit and watch everybody else win!!!!
#Staymad
And bey was awarded a vma at the Grammys, and was given best contemporary, when her album is neither urban or contemporary! Anti should have definitely won that category. I guess the coins had to be reserved for the ” twins”. Both bey and Rih were robbed. I think the academy is getting back at Rih for bailing last year!
Adele probably said that because she knew you crazy stans would be @ her all night on twitter
Meanwhile, a year later, ANTI still relevant on radio and charts and lemonade is not LIKE I SAID
Rihboy
Rih definitely deserved urban contemporary. This was a joke. Rih owned the summer with work and needed me
David Bowie should have at least been nominated for Album of the Year. His final album was an absolute heartbreaking masterpiece.
Im convinced Beyoncé needs to just release another IASF and radio friendly singles so she can snatch AOTY. They clearly aren’t giving it to artists that are releasing honest music to themselves. Rihanna delivered her best work and lost all noms. Bey delivered what critics and even general music lovers said was the best AOTY. Oh well, she’s only 9 awards away from being the most awarded.
Exactly. I agree. The GRAMMYS give out their awards on commercial success 85% of the time… Beyonce deserved AOTY.
The awards were rubbish. They robbed both our faves.
This isn’t anything knew. I honestly don’t feel sorry for Beyonce. She has 22 Grammy’s. You have artists like Mariah, Janet, and Madonna, who have never won album of the year, or the big three and they have put out groundbreaking music. Mariah and Madonna are 2 of the biggest selling artists in history, with 2 diamond selling albums. You can’t say Beyonce is over due, when you have all of these other legends who have been robbed since the 80’s.
Mariah (5 grammys)
Whitney Houston (6 grammys)
Madonna (7 grammys)
Janet Jackson (5 grammy’s)
Celine Dion (7 grammys)
Grammy’s aren’t credible anymore, especially with Taylor Swift winning AOTY twice!!
We need more artist like Adele, Who step outside of the politics and call a spade a spade! She is as real as they get! Gotta love her humility man…..
Lmfao!! All that shît talking for months yet she lost.. ?
I’m ready for the meltdowns
All shade aside, Im super fuckinng shocked Rihanna didnt get anything?!?! And I was a lil confused…. She looked great though, But I tell u, the Grammys are going downhill fast! This was the worst one yet in my opinion, Just sooooo fuckinng boring, And whats with the recycled performers…. Liek Bruno & adele got to perform TWICE! Are there not enough performers out there to give the people a great and diverse show????
Agreed
I’m a Ciara stan and I wasn’t to keen on Beyonce but after her performance tonight I wanted her to win album of the year.OR Rihanna..but neither of them won and Adele got both awards..soooo disappointed.
Lemonade deserved the win! Adele sounded like she sang her entire album after taking an insulin shot
Wow. Im fuvking shocked. Im speechless b****. Even Adele knew Beyonce deserved that AOTY award. Wtf is wrong with the Grammys i can’t f****** deal f*** yall
I kinda felt it would happen after her speech for urban contemporary album. That was an album of the year speech. Not much she had left to say. Also the way she ended her speech “thank you and have a great evening” was like foreshadowing that she wasn’t going to be on stage again. It’s a shame because that album was incredible and was of great importance. Adele’s 25 wasn’t anywhere near 19 or even 21.
Disappointing but now nobody can say Beyonce pays for her awards…
I thought the Grammys were about quality, Lemonade has a full 20 points over 25 on Metacritic. Not to mention Beyoncé could sing Adele under SEVERAL tables. That was made clear during tonight’s award show.
I’m so done with the Grammys !!! They snubbed tf out of Rihanna. And completely snubbed Bey for AOTY even Adele knew that was some BS. They better not go to another damn Grammy award show again. This is ridiculous
This is a prime example of why we as black people need to start supporting our OWN s***
This is true !
I said Adele was going to sweep the main categories minus best new artist.Who is surprised? I’m not,you don’t win Album Of The Year at the Grammys if you’re black,unless you’re old,dead or went Diamond.The last time a black person won Album of the year, was in 2008 and the artist was way past their prime.
Fun fact: Lauren hill was the last black female to win aoty and that was back in the 90’s
Damn that’s messed up! All those amazing albums by black female artist that’s come out since then my goodness! The Grammys should be ashamed of themselves for real!
Bet y’all won’t say Beyoncé pays for her awards now
I actually wish she did for once
She had to save face after Kanye put her on blast.
And I’m no rih fan but that was so rude what they did to her
Have to show love to the great David Bowie with 5 wins tonight! He won everything he was nominated for! #ICON
❤
Again this should be no surprise as Adele sold over 3million in a week with a second diamond album to boot and also A/C and pop will always dominate. Also with lemonade while it was a brilliant visual piece the marketing of martial problems and pending divorce and playing on the public’ intelligence did not pay off. But respect to Beyoncé for sparking a conversation with lemonade.
Yeah, “25” was a commercial blockbuster breaking so many records but “Lemonade” was the most critically acclaimed album of the year
Let’s be real, the hype of “LEMONADE” pasted over a week after its release. Even it’s more commercial singles didn’t catch on. The problem with “BEYONCÉ” and “LEMONADE” was the lack of promotion, pretentious story lines and the controversial stand didn’t help much either. “25” was SAFE AS HELL! The only risk Adele took with that album was “Send My Love” and “Water Under The Bridge”. It was the biggest pop album in a long time, its success is something unheard of right now. Adele won off of the success of her album, not it’s artistic creativity. I really didn’t expect Beyonce to win AOTY, even though she had a much better chance “LEMONADE” was threaded together better as a whole than ANY of her previous albums…25 was just to big of a pop success for a majority pop award show to look over.
N how can one be nominated 8 times and lose all of them? ? no shade but damn bitvh. What i love tho is how Rihanna seemed unbothered all throughout the night. Having the time of her life n taking shots lmao
The Grammys are so predictable. I knew Overratedele was gonna sweep. Rihanna is annoying, but she could’ve gotten at least one. Work was like the song of 2016. Don’t get me started on Queen Bey. She’s good enough for ratings but not good enough for the major categories? So sad.
I’m actually shocked, I thought Beyoncé would have bought AOTY, guess, being pregnant for the first time has really changed her.
Your shade is very redundant.
#YouLookStupidNow
No, she had to save face since Kanye spilled the tea, so she had to let them actually give AOTY to a deserving nominee.
Also Congrats to Lil Wayne on winning his 5th Grammy.
It’s called karma, beyonce and mathew kicked off Latavia and Latoya from Destinys’s Child, her “sisters”. Strong armned BC Jean, hurt NEyo, blatantly put her name on Kissing you and change the lyrics, even when she was told not to, never acknowledged Bob Fosse and so many creative artists.
As Long As The Thief Didn’t Win AOTY (Yall Bishes Know Who I’m Talkin About Im Good). Love How It Cried LMFAO kiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOODNIGHT!
How did “U Don’t Know” do on the charts? Thotstine bandwagoning the tropical trend yet can’t even make the R&B charts.
Congratulations to David Bowie and Adele for winning everything they were nominated for.
They robbed Beyonce because of her pro-black themed album.
And despite how you feel about Rihanna, you can’t deny she’s been the queen of radio for the past year. She deserved contemporary album nomination at least. Grammys are mad racist.
I knew it. Technically, Adele had the album song and record of the year. I think she’s the first person to win all 3 major categories since Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Congrats. And when Jackson won, he technically had the album, song and record of the year.

I wanted Bey to win tho. Just further proves that her Grammy’s are NOT purchased after all. The real reason she has so many is because 95% of her wins are in R&B categories. And she’s literally been the only powerful R&B female act of the past 15 years. Besides Alicia. That’s why she has so many Grammy Awards. Outside of R&B/Urban… She would only have 3 or 4 Grammy awards.

Now, overall, this years Grammy’s was really good. I enjoyed almost all performances tbh… Bruno really shinned and of course Bey slayed as well.
Wait… Actually, Adele is the only artist in history to win all 3 major categories twice. 21 won all 3 as well. Wow.
…But Bey buy her awards, right????? If she makes appearances she’s supposedly guaranteed the biggest honor of the night, right?
I’m very disappointed in the Grammys, but it’s still been a heck of an era for Beyonce! She’ll get that award one day! She still have 22 on the mantel!
Bey and rih got snubbed but thats alright they still s**** on all of those mayonnaise colored basic trash pop stars
Oh now that Beyoncé didn’t win AOTY, the Hive suddenly wanted Rihanna to win…something, hypocrites.
Why are you fuming up and down tgj like you just did 80 lines of cocaine ? ?
Adele is so damn overrated and boring and her performances were a mess. Yes I said it. Had that been anyone else they wouldve been roasted!!! Nice final speech but really hate the Grammys predictable racist asses now. Rihanna and Beyonce both deserved more. They should never give them the honor of their presence again.
I’m so disappointed for my BeyBey she was so deserving and worked so hard with that album. But she looked so radiantly stunning tonight and her performance was beautiful x
Knew Bey would lose but I got downvoted to hell for saying it. The GRAMMYs are trash and this was the worst year so far. Twenty One Pilots winning alone is a complete and utter joke.
I bet the only reason Chance won so much is because of his Kanye endorsement.
Call me neutral or what have you, but it is truly hard to say who deserves what before someone else. This is why I don’t really like award shows. How can you say someone else’s work is better than someone else? Every true artist works hard to put forth a good body of work and yes it would be nice if that work was acknowledged. But ultimately if your fans like it, then that’s all that should matter.
At the end of the day the Grammy’s don’t mean jack, because if they did so many greats like Mariah, Celine, Whitney, Prince etc etc would have more than 5 or 6 Grammys, in truth it’s their legacy that truly counts. Their impact.
So true. The true greats will be remembered for their groundbreaking music. Everyone is saying Beyonce deserved AOTY, but didn’t actually listen to every album nominated. I’m sure everyone wanted their favorite to win, just because it’s their favorite. Beyonce has won enough in her career. She has 22 Grammy’s, how in the world has she been overlooked? It took David Bowie last album to recognized by them, however he didn’t need any of that to make an impact and become the legend he is and will always be remembered for.
Yaaaaaaaaaas ADELE!!!!!
Slay the F out of thiefyone’s ass
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She destroyed it!!!!!!!!!!
Yas yas yas
Am sorry thiefyonce
U got ur fake ass pregnancy removed
Thank u adele for giving me real music
And f**k beyonce with it lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So the crusty a** chainsmokers and Justin Timberfake won something for their wack music but rih didn’t? What a joke the Grammys have become
LMAO ALL THESE SEETHING INSECTS.
THAT’S RIGHT BUGS, CLING TO RIHANNA CUZ YALL KNOW YOUR BUG QUEEN IS NO MATCH FOR SLAYDELE LMAO!
As navy i wasnt even excited about the grammys, it was obvious it wasnt rihanna’s year. Just hoping she pays them dust for eternity to come. If they cant recognise ri for anti, will they ever recognise her for anything lmfao. But we aint seething, we not thirsty for awards like bey and her annoying fans, they cant stand anyone being better than bey. Dont tell me bey wasnt thirsty for that abum of the year award, its probably why the album was titled lemonade anyway. I love bey tho with all her extraness.
Ok…no iStan4Rihanna. Queen Bey def deserved AOTY no question, but don’t act like Work deserved any sort of recognition let alone a Grammy. I’m sorry but Work is Rihanna’s worst hit song to date. It’s complete S***. The song is f****** annoying and is only big because of Drake and the mv. Now… ANTI deserved Best Pop Vocal Album in my opinion. I mean cuts like Kiss It Better, James Joint, Same Ol, Never Ending, Closer to You, Yeah, I Said It, Love on the Brain, LIKE ARE U F****** SERIOUS GRAMMYS. Work was complete diahrehea, but Anti was her best album TO DATE.
Congratulations to all the artists that had win their award
