Beyonce is one of the most legendary artists in the history of music and she has won countless Grammy Awards. However, there is one trophy that has eluded her for years. Of course, we are talking about Album of the Year. Although she has been nominated, she has never actually won. This is pretty surprising given the fact that she has a few classic albums under her belt. In the end, Beyonce has been able to break through, decades into her career and fans are ecstatic.
The artist was battling the likes of Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan, Charli XCX, and even Sabrina Carpenter for Album of the Year. COWBOY CARTER was a good album, although it wasn't the powerhouse that Lemonade and Renaissance were. Despite this, the Grammys felt that Beyonce deserved the award and she went home with Album of the Year, much to her shock and delight. Jay-Z was alongside of her for the evening and he was definitely looking on proudly as she accepted her award.

The award that shocked Beyonce the most, however, was Country Album of the Year. At awards shows like the CMA's, Beyonce was completely shut out. There was quite a bit of discourse about this, with some country artists claiming that she wasn't visible enough in Nashville to get recognized. Well, this has all culminated in Beyonce winning on the biggest stage. Simply put, all of that other stuff doesn't even matter. The artist has won everything there is to accomplish at the biggest awards event of the year.
If you are a Beyonce fan, you can't help but feel both amazing and vindicated by all of this. There have been a lot of COWBOY CARTER detractors as of late, but Bey has come through and shown the world that talent triumphs everything. This is going to go down as a historic night in music and we are just happy we got to witness it.
