With the combined forces of SZA, Dua Lipa, Miley Cyrus, Fantasia, Burna Boy, Tracy Chapman, Olivia Rodrigo, and Billie Eilish on its performance roster, the superstars – alongside the other chart-toppers in the house like Beyonce and JAY-Z, Taylor Swift, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, and others – proved more than enough to boost Sunday’s GRAMMYs into some of its best viewership figures in years.
See what we mean inside.
Viewership: 17.09 Million
Beyond boasting a slew of historic highs and unprecedented wins, the 66th annual edition of music’s biggest night drew a viewing audience slightly north of 17 million, its highest ratings since garnering 18.7 million in 2020.
The 2024 figure – which doesn’t include streaming from Paramount+ – represents a 36% increase from last year’s ceremony also hosted by Trevor Noah.

SZA’s power✨
Lie… 🥱 cause of legends like Mariah, Celine, Tracy Chapman, Join Mitchell, Billy Joel… etc. You can’t beat quality over hype! Time to cancel hip-hop culture by bring back music, art & melodies!
And also a nice tribute to everyone! I thought it was well done!
Trevor Noah is a good host! 👏
Without Beyonce everything was fine… ratings UP! 🫶
Beyonce was there last year and the ratings were low
She shouldnt be attending at all and this show would be like good old days!
Cause ppl tired of hip-hop and black ghetto music! That’s why!
Minus that satanic ritual by Travis Scott and Jay-Zzz’s boring speech about his dumb wife this year Grammy would have been perfect 10!!
Anything without so much hip-hop/rap surely will make people glued to the television. Not everyone can relate to gangs, strip clubs, violence, underground 3rd world ghetto culture…I agree that limiting to the underground culture will make the audience interested in music and the show in general again.
I’m not saying hip-hop doesn’t have its own niche but the Grammy should cater to the general public.
Without Taylor… +10!
💩
Nominations also play an important to ratings. Thanks to Taylor…Miley!!
That Billie girl omg, I’m not sure y’all 🤮 she can’t sing!
It proves America is getting tired of Flopyonce, also
Jay, Kanye, Drake, Minaj, etc!!! Next is Taylor S*****…..just wait
Well actually alot people tune in to see Fantasia Tina Turner tribute it peak 18 million around her tribute to Tina
Fantasia nailed it. Bey is too much…of a $tripper vibe!! 🤣
Good for NARAS and the producers of the show.
I enjoyed it. The best in years.
Book Trevor Noah for at least 2 more years. 👏👏
Megan The Scallops has only sold over 5 million career album units in the US. Don’t invite a mental illness to an event if Grammy’s wants the audience..ha 💅
Worst performance:
Billie
Travis
Jay’s speech…..embarrassment even to an a**!
The power of Miley!!!!!!
Easy formula. Bey wasnt nominated indeed was a good start sign. America is getting tired of her attitude and music in general. Plus, her payola awards and recognitions all smoke and mirrors. HYPE!!
stop giving awards to the same artist….everything will be fine!
Time to recognize real musicians
Thank god no Meg
