[Grammys telecast](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/06/arts/music/grammy-awards-beyonce-harry-styles.html), and now she’s recruited [SZA](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/08/magazine/sza.html) to provide a fresh spin on the song. Brooklyn’s Yaya Bey brings a light touch to “Exodus the North Star,” the title track from an upcoming EP that follows her excellent 2022 album “Remember Your North Star.” “Exodus” is a love-struck reverie that begins as a sparse arrangement — just Bey’s voice and some celestial keys — but soon explodes into a joyful, horn-kissed celebration. “It’s just that I get so tired of filling the space all around me.” But just then, her voice swells in intensity and fills that space with her own wrenching emotion. And it is savvy business too, a way of formalizing the chaos of TikTok and bringing it under the umbrella of the empire. But there’s still something of a purring engine inside songs like “Love You Anyway,” which in the hands of a lesser singer, would be a familiar, cloying ode to a love so strong, it’s worth the pain of potentially losing it. But when Combs sings, “If your kiss turned me to stone, I’d be a statue standing tall in ancient Rome,” he sounds like he’s thoroughly pondered the consequences — the likelihood of heartbreak — and is pressing on with force nonetheless. “Younger & Dumber,” from the Asheville singer-songwriter Indigo De Souza, is a slow-burning tear-jerker, a gradual accumulation of heartbreaking lines that takes flight in a soaring climax. She is the defining superstar of the stan era, publicly available only every once in a while. On Sunday, she won four Grammys, giving her a career total of 32 and making her the most decorated performer in the show’s history.

Speaking about what people can expect, Gilligan told the Standard: “I'm looking forward to it.

The 65th GRAMMY Awards depended on Shure wireless technology to deliver high-quality audio for Lizzo, Mary J. Blige and other music icons.

“Whether the GRAMMYs are hosted in Vegas or LA, I can trust Shure digital wireless to provide reliable support in the world’s most challenging RF environments,” remarks Vaughn. Shure Axient Digital wireless technology, supplied by ATK Audiotek and Soundtronics, thus enabled each of the performances. “Wireless Workbench gives me the control and flexibility these large-scale events demand.” Later, Busta Rhymes traded verses of “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See” and “Look At Me Now” on the legendary SM58 wireless microphone. Steve Vaughn, Soundtronic’s RF Coordinator, managed this task with the support of Axient Digital. The clarity helps Lizzo’s vocals stay in front of the mix with little effort,” says Gonzales. Live from Los Angeles’s Crypto.com Arena, the 65th GRAMMY Awards featured tributes, a fair share of surprise twists and performances with support from Shure wireless audio technology. Smokey Robinson, one of MusiCares’ most recent Persons Of The Year, also used the KSM11. “Having just completed the 65th annual GRAMMY Awards, I always rely on Shure microphones in creating the sound for the broadcast music mix,” shares Schilling. Overall, the show relied on 59 channels of Shure wireless technology. This year, I [could] use the Shure KSM11 head on Mary J. Nearly every performance of the night implemented Shure PSM 1000 in-ear monitoring systems, totaling 28 channels with 160 Shure P10R bodypacks.

“If I had to go back in time before my audition and warn myself about what was to come, I don’t think 2015 Calum would grasp the gravity of where I’m at now.

LIZZO had one of the biggest showbiz entourages of the night - and demanded three separate riders for herself, her band and backing vocalists.

The singer—nominated for two awards—played parts of “Special,” “2 Be Loved,” and “About Damn Time”

In the days between award shows, Lizzo shared a [new version](https://pitchfork.com/news/lizzo-enlists-sza-for-new-special-remix-listen/) of “Special” with SZA. While wearing a giant pink fluffy collar and surrounded by backup dancers, Lizzo sang her way through “ [Special](https://pitchfork.com/news/lizzo-enlists-sza-for-new-special-remix-listen/),” “ [2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)](https://pitchfork.com/news/lizzo-shares-new-video-2-be-loved-am-i-ready-watch/),” and “ [About Damn Time](https://pitchfork.com/news/lizzo-shares-video-for-new-song-about-damn-time-watch/).” As is the case at her award show performances, she broke out her flute for a solo at one point, too.
