Monday night, The Weeknd had the opportunity to win four Grammy awards, but he didn’t quite come away with those numbers. Instead, he won two and likely is very happy with his past year. He dominated the summer with his music, and is already being successful in 2016. Let’s take a look at his two wins Monday night.
The Weeknd won the Best Urban Contemporary Album, beating out a big list of stars. The four “losers” of the category include Miguel, Kehlani, Lianna La Havas, and The Internet. “Beauty Behind the Madness” was an amazing album and that point was validated with its win last night.
He also won Best R&B Performance for his song “Earned It” from “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Tamar Braxton, Andra Day, Jeremih, and Hiatus Kaiyote also were nominated for the award.
