LOS ANGELES (AP) — Beyoncé won album of the year for “Cowboy Carter” at Sunday’s Grammys, delivering her — at last — the show’s elusive top award. The superstar, who is both the most awarded and nominated artist in Grammys history, has been up for the category four times before and many feel she has been snubbed by its top honors.

Don't mind us crying after watching Doechii 's acceptance speech at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

The waiting was the hardest part for Beyoncé fans, but patience finally paid off as she scored a win for album of the year at Sunday night’s Grammys, with “Cowboy Carter” scoring the top prize where four previously nominated albums in the category had not.

The Swamp Princess is officially a Grammy winner. Doechii took home the award for Best Rap Album at the 2025 Grammys, for her mixtape Alligator Bites Never Heal. In her acceptance speech, the Tampa-born rapper dedicated her win to Black women whose dreams have been doubted.

Members of the Los Angeles Fire Department presented Beyoncé with the trophy Sunday, one of several times the show reflected the recent wildfires that burned thousands of homes.
