Beyonce

We were expecting a Beyoncé vs Adele rematch, but Harry Styles' surprise win showed a deep lack of imagination at the 2023 Grammys, writes Mark Beaumont.

In terms of the fundamental visions involved, they’re in different leagues: Beyoncé pioneers, Styles imitates. The Grammys have a grand total of 91 award categories across a vast array of genres, but most are presented during an unscreened Premiere Ceremony before the main show like one relentless, 90-minute howl of “diverse enough for you, Twitter!?”. So the 2024 Beyoncé Knowles-Carter Robbed Again Award goes to.… Already, Styles had delivered the most lacklustre performance of the night, first spotted wandering about on a revolving stage full of dancers – well, more like loiterers really – before his rendition of “As It Was” was upstaged by his own sparkly yeti outfit. When these two superpowers of female fortitude and redemption last clashed in 2017, the Brit singer swept the board – and expressed her dismay in her [Album of the Year](/topic/album-of-the-year) acceptance speech. It was the second time running that Beyoncé had been robbed of the AOTY gong, having lost out to Beck in 2015.

The queen of pop broke records – though not for the big gongs, again. But if the Recording Academy has a history of unexpected choices, this year's wins for ...

[Harry Styles](https://www.theguardian.com/music/harry-styles)’s Harry’s House beating Renaissance to album of the year doesn’t feel the same as Beck’s Morning Phase triumphing over [Beyoncé](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/dec/13/beyonce-album-first-review) in 2015, nor does it feel the same as if, say, Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres had won this year. [Beyoncé](https://www.theguardian.com/music/beyonce) has only ever won one of them once – song of the year in 2010 for Single Ladies – which seems a fairly inexplicable state of affairs: you don’t need to be a rabid member of the Bey Hive to know that she’s had an immense cultural and commercial impact over the last 20 years. Under the circumstances, Samara Joy – a hugely gifted jazz vocalist, gradually emerging as a significant songwriter as well as an adept interpreter of standards – feels like a worthwhile choice: rooted in tradition, but too soulful to qualify as easy listening. The weirdest success was Bonnie Raitt’s [Just Like That](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Skd0XR3twCA) winning song of the year, at least from the perspective of the UK, where the album it’s from didn’t even make the charts. Certainly they’re one of the biggest-selling groups in a field where several of the nominees didn’t even seem particularly new: Molly Tuttle’s first album came out in 2006; Tobe Nwigwe’s first EP six years ago; Muni Long is 34 and released her debut album, albeit under her real name, Priscilla Renea, in 2009. Without wishing to cast shade on those doughtily toiling away in the areas covered by the best score soundtrack for video games and other interactive media and best new age ambient or chant album categories, the Grammys are ultimately about four awards: album of the year, record of the year, song of the year and best new artist.

Beyonce sits alone atop the Grammy throne as the ceremony's most decorated artist in history, but at the end of Sunday's show it was Harry Styles who walked ...

The actor gave an emotional speech and emphatically said “I just EGOT” after she marched on stage to collect her award. … I would like to thank the culture for allowing me to evolve in order to make this. I wouldn’t be here without her and her support.” Thank you.” She has released two albums as a lead artist and also won the Grammy for best jazz vocal album earlier in the night. A who’s who of hip-hop royalty took the stage for an epic, rousing 15 minute tribute to the genre’s 50th anniversary. Veteran singer-songwriter Bonnie Raitt shrugged off big-name rivals like Adele, Swift and Beyonce to win the song of the year award. The New Yorker was virtually in tears when she collected the award and noted that her little brother was her date. Host Trevor Noah said she was on her way to the ceremony but blamed Los Angeles traffic for not being in person to accept it. “It feels like validation that you’re on the right path,” said the singer backstage. “I’m trying not to be too emotional,” the superstar said after her historic win as her husband Jay-Z stood and applauded her. It feels really nice to feel like `Oh, that’s the right thing to do.”’ The singer thanked her late uncle, her parents, Jay-Z and her children for supporting her.

Beyoncé's Album of the Year loss is part of a long history of the Recording Academy failing to recognize the achievements of Black female musicians.

[an average score of 83 on Metacritic](https://www.metacritic.com/music/harrys-house/harry-styles). Throughout the history of the awards, there have been other upsets with Black women nominated for Album of the Year. The single “Formation” generated controversy because of the song and video’s staunchly anti-police perspective. (Even Adele famously tried to reject her own win over Beyoncé’s Lemonade in 2017.) But the Recording Academy has long ignored Beyoncé when it comes to the Big Four Categories—Best New Artist, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year. When Harry Styles was announced as the winner, there was what appeared to be a brief pause before the room erupted into applause. Among those emotions were anger, frustration, and resignation at the Recording Academy’s history of overlooking Black artists, and specifically Black women, in this major category. There was a noticeable hush in the room right after host Trevor Noah announced the nominees for the night’s biggest award. Over on Twitter, meanwhile, things immediately devolved into chaos as critics and fans expressed a range of reactions to the perceived snub for Beyoncé and Renaissance.

Here is everything we know about Beyoncé's upcoming UK tour, including prices and how to buy tickets.

Beyoncé’s last tour in the UK was back in 2018 with her husband Jay-Z for her show ‘On The Run II’. There have been rumours that Beyoncé has been considering British girl group Flo, who will receive the Rising Star Award at the 2023 Brit Awards. Unfortunately, registration has closed, so if you’re not already a member, you’ll have to wait for the general sale. Prices for Beyoncé’s UK dates range from £56.25 for a seated ticket to £106.80 for a standing ticket, plus fees. There’s been a serious scramble for tickets so far, with many fans complaining on Twitter that they were kicked out before reaching the front of the presale queue. Much to our delight, the superstar confirmed the live dates were happening at the Wearable Art Gala in California on October 22, and now the European and North American legs of the Renaissance World Tour have been announced.

It was billed as the shock of the Grammys 2023: Harry Styles took home Album of the Year instead of Beyoncé. But should we be surprised?

This is the fourth Beyoncé album to be snubbed for album of the year at the Grammys, each time she’s been beaten by a white artist: Taylor Swift, Adele, Beck and now Harry Styles. In 66 years of the Grammys, only 15 Black artists have won Album of the Year, ostensibly the top prize at the awards. Black artists are allowed to do well in the R&B, Rap and Reggae categories, maybe sometimes in the pop and vocal performance categories, but the biggest awards seem ring-fenced. Thank you!” He seemed honestly moved and appreciative, and sincerely complimented the rest of the records in his category. He is the absolute prototype for the sort of person this happens to. “This doesn’t happen to people like me very often,” Harry Styles said accepting the Album of the Year award at this year’s Grammys for his excellent Harry’s House.

But thankfully, Queen B arrived in time for her history-making moment. On Sunday, she won the Best Dance/Electronic Music Album award for her latest LP Renaissance. Beyonce, who announced earlier this month she would be embarking on her first global tour in seven years, was late to the Los Angeles ceremony.

The ‘ [Lemonade](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/05/30/beyonces-lemonade)’ album was so monumental.” Song for “Cuff It,” a highlight from her 2022 album, “ [Renaissance](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/08/15/beyonces-renaissance-shocks-some-life-into-a-culture-gone-inert),” she tied with the conductor Georg Solti for the highest number of Grammy wins. When [Adele](https://www.newyorker.com/tag/adele) won Album of the Year over Beyoncé, in 2017, there was such a sense of cosmic injustice that Adele herself could not bear the result. Like Adele, Lizzo was compelled to use the end of her stage time to state the obvious: “Thank you so much,” she told Beyoncé. Bad Bunny—who won in the Música Urbana Album category but was otherwise snubbed, despite his global dominance—kicked off the show with an electrifying tribute to historical Latin genres, offering up a maximalist version of his merengue-minded single, “Después de la Playa.” It was such a dynamic performance that This was the overt story line of the evening, but the louder subtext was the question of whether the Recording Academy was finally prepared to give Beyoncé the major awards. When the performance wrapped, the cameras found Jay-Z, who was shooting a finger gun in ecstatic celebration. It was the sort of thing that could have come off like a PowerPoint presentation. [Trevor Noah](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/on-television/how-the-daily-show-squandered-the-opportunity-that-was-trevor-noah), worked overtime this year to remind the audience of the Grammys’ respect for her towering greatness, and the historic nature of the evening. [Beyoncé](https://www.newyorker.com/tag/beyonce) found herself once again achieving an awkward status within the universe of the Recording Academy.

Racism, sexism, fuddy-duddyism: They're all reasons why the winningest artist in Grammy history lost album of the year yet again, this time to Harry Styles.

Because she gathers so many collaborators to help execute her plans, voters seem stubbornly unwilling to accept Beyoncé as the auteur in control of her music — a vexing if hardly novel problem running along both race and gender lines. But if she doesn’t need the Grammys, the Grammys need her: Overnight ratings for Sunday’s telecast were up 30% from 2022, a jump attributable at least in part to the suspense surrounding Beyoncé’s opportunity to break the all-time record. Nor do a growing number of intrepid Black artists — Drake, Frank Ocean and the Weeknd among them — who’ve decided the Grammys’ values don’t align with theirs. But “to ensure music creators are voting in the categories in which they are most knowledgeable and qualified,” as the academy rules put it, members can vote on only 10 of the dozens of more specific awards (such as R&B performance), and all 10 of those must be within no more than three genres. After all, Beyonce’s latest loss comes amid a larger historical context, which is that a mere three Black women — Natalie Cole, Whitney Houston and Lauryn Hill — have won album of the year in the Grammys’ 65 years. Lose the trailblazers and you risk losing those who come behind them. All 11,000 or so of the academy’s voting members are allowed to vote in the Grammys’ four general categories of album, record and song of the year and best new artist. This explains the cognitive dissonance stemming from the fact that Beyoncé is both the most-awarded artist in Grammys history and a trendsetter who keeps getting robbed. That’s a clear distortion of Black women’s importance in pop music that undermines the Grammys’ role as a record-keeping enterprise. But with its intricate weave of samples and interpolations, it’s also structurally daring in a way that obviously triggered the academy’s suspicions about “real music” — suspicions foreshadowed in the Grammys’ pretelevised ceremony when Beyoncé’s longtime collaborator In fact, of the 32 Grammys that Beyoncé has collected over the last two decades, only one — one!

At this year's Grammys, Beyoncé might have made history, but she was once again denied the night's most prestigious prize: Album of the Year.

Nonetheless, the reluctance to give the major awards to a woman who was labelled “the G.O.A.T.” during the show highlights the ongoing pattern of Grammy voters expressing their appreciation for the contribution of black artists, without backing it up with actual rewards. If Beyoncé had been the recipient of the said award, it would have been an even more powerful acknowledgment of the black queer community in today’s socio-economic landscape. While her snubbing for Album of the Year is frustrating for fans, critics, and anyone who’s seen how Beyoncé’s music can fuel and inspire social movements, Renaissance remains a masterpiece and Beyonce a living legend – with or without the stamp of a Grammy. It’s shameful that the industry did not duly give recognition to Beyoncé for her culture-defining project. It’s been more than a decade-and-a-half since Herbie Hancock won Album of the Year award back in 2007 for a record honouring Joni Mitchell, River: The Joni Letters, and the last black woman to be given the accolade was Lauryn Hill in 1998. [In his acceptance speech](https://www.nme.com/news/music/harry-styles-wins-album-of-the-year-at-2023-grammys-3392787) for album of the year, Harry Styles said: “I think – like on nights like tonight – it’s obviously so important for us to remember that there is no such thing as best in music”. [come in for his fair share of criticism over ‘queerbaiting’](https://theweek.com/briefing/1016362/is-harry-styles-queerbaiting), using aspects of the queer community for commercial gain), seems somewhat underwhelming. The 16-track body of work has been described by many as a love letter to the black queer roots of dance music. Her losses this year in the top three categories were discouraging, but not unexpected in an industry that’s created an atmosphere where the exclusion of Black artists is all too common. This reflects The Recording Academy’s failure to recognise boundary-breaking black musicians in major categories, thereby neglecting to acknowledge the influence African-American music has on the industry and society in general.
