First lady Jill Biden presented first Best Song for Social Change winner: Iranian artist Shervin Hajipour

Meanwhile, something incredible happened at tonight's 2023 Grammys... 

First lady Jill Biden presented the first-ever Grammy for Best Song for Social Change and it went to Iranian artist Shervin Hajipour for his song "Baraye." The song, which has been labeled the anthem for Iran's protest movement, was sparked by the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini.

Biden said the song was "a powerful and poetic call for freedom and women's rights " before noting that Hajipour has been arrested by Iranian authorities two days after posted a video of himself singing “Baraye” on Instagram on Sept. 27, 2022. 

The song was viewed more than 40 million times on his Instagram page before authorities took it down on the day of his arrest.

Lizzo was not expecting a Grammy tonight

But she got one, and it's the record of the year. Her song 'It's about damn time' has made headlines and got her a big one. But through it all, Lizzo continues to look up to one main queen...

As we take a moment to appreciate all the great artists at the 2023 Grammys, we also take a moment to appreciate Adele's 4-season vocal cords, and well... genuinity.

Glimpse of hiphop celebration at the Grammys

What's music without HipHop? What's the Grammys without 50 years of celebrating it?

Hip-hop has defined cultures, united legends together made the Grammys and the Super Bowl what they are today... that's why the 65th edition of the Grammys isn't complete without the celebration of 50 years of Hiphop. From Missy making you lose control, to getting you Hot in here... Thank you hiphoppers

Reem Abdalazem

Mary J Blige makes music move

We know Beyoncé has totally stolen the night, but sometimes we look at Mary J. Blige and just say thank you.

Emotional tribute to Takeoff

Takeoff, who was shot and killed in Houston, Texas in November, had a special moment back with us tonight when Migos rapper Quavo performed a tribute to the 28-year-old, three months after his killing. 

 The lyrics speak to Quavo’s grief for his loved one.

Reem Abdalazem

Seriously though B...

We love a special Beyonce moment at the Grammys and we love DJ Khaled's reaction in the background even more. Yeah it's all smiles back there... just zoom in

Music's Biggest Night on fire

What a show so far.

Beyoncé arrives late at the Grammys but looks stunning as ever and ties for most Grammys wins. EGOT winner Viola Davis got a well-deserved standing O.

Sam Smith didn;t only win a Grammy but literally all LGBTQ rights when he shined the spotlight on Kim Petras as she became the first transgender person to win a Grammy for best pop duo/group performance for their song "Unholy."

Bad Bunny proved to us there is no summer without him, while Harry Styles literally looked like summer. 

Reem Abdalazem

Special tribute moment

Tonight, the Grammys pay special tribute to Loretta Lynn, Takeoff, Christine McVie, and all songbirds that we have lost this year. Their legacy will forever be with us.

The African Michael Jackson

Now, our lovely readers, let’s give a little attention to Trevor Noah- as if you don’t already know him- or if you have simply watched him so many times before you actually don’t know as much about him as you might think… 

Here’s what the Instagram bio of the 38-year-old reads: ‘Comedian from South Africa. I was in the crowd when Rafiki held Simba over the edge of the cliff, like an African Michael Jackson.’

This is tonight’s host, everyone. 

And now stay tuned, and don't miss the rest of the Grammys with us and Noah!

Queen B turning heads, as always

And since we're talking Beyonce, who somehow just arrived at the Grammys because of traffic, let's talk Queens. 

Queen B just won a Grammy for her song 'Cuff it', and while we didn't get the chance to have her up on stage, and see her all glammed-up, we did see her look magical yesterday at Roc Nation's brunch in L.A. Other star-studded celebrities made an appearance like Anitta, Snoh Aalegra, and obviously, Roc Nation founder Jay-Z —but it was the one and only Beyoncé who turned heads around. The Renaissance singer showed up to brunch in a glamorous alien-like dress that had queen B written all over it.

Bad Bunny wins the best Best Música Urbana Album winner

Why was there no televised Golden Globes ceremony last year?

While we’re here talking up the Grammys and the incredible artists that we’re seeing tonight, we might as well be real and talk about the not-so-good things about the event. Let’s quickly remind our readers about what happened in 2021 that led to a dramatic fall of the Grammys,and a one-year hiatus with no in-person ceremony.

In 2021, it became public that no Black correspondents had been added to the organization’s membership since 2002. The organization was even exploited for racial bias,neglecting non-white artists by media outlets and fans having been brought up for decades.

Combined with the current HFPA membership, the total Golden Globe Awards voting body is now 52% female, 51.5% racially and ethnically diverse, with 19.5% Latinx, 12% Asian, 10% Black and 10% Middle Eastern.

Over the last year, the organization has worked to expand its membership, focusing on bringing in writers from marginalized backgrounds.
