The 2025 GRAMMY Awards have taken place, honouring the best in music - and yes, we have the full list of winners and nominees!

Beyoncé made history once again this year with 11 nominations for "Cowboy Carter" including the prestigious Album of the Year - this makes her the most nominated artist of all time (99 times!) in addition to already being the most awarded artist in GRAMMYs history. Her new record breaks the 88-nomination tie she previously held with hubs, JAY-Z.

She also became the first Black woman to win a country category in over 50 years and the only Black woman to win Best Country Album.

Amy Allen, who is behind a bunch of Sabrina Carpenter's hits including "Espresso" and "Please, Please, Please" is the first woman to win the Songwriter of the Year award.

Chappell Roan was named Best New Artist and used her platform to urge music labels to better support developing artists with living wages and healthcare.

And Doechii won Best Rap Album, making her the third woman in history to win the category!
