Grammy Awards 2017 : List Of Winners

Some of the most respected artists in the music industry came together for the 2017 Grammy Awards.

On Sunday, the 59th Annual Grammys were held at Los Angeles’ Staples Center. Although many stars were honored with awards, Adele completely dominated the night.

The 28 year old “Hello” songstress was nominated for 5 awards, and won all of them – including the most desired award, Album Of The Year for “25.”

Chicago rapper Chance The Rapper made history, being the very first independent artist to walk away with a Grammy. Chance nabbed 3 awards – Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance, and Best Rap Album.
