The 68th Annual Grammy Awards saw some of the biggest names in music taking home top honors, with Bad Bunny and Kendrick Lamar emerging as major winners.
Bad Bunny's album "Un Verano Sin Ti" dominated the awards show, winning three Grammys, including Best Latin Album. The album, which explores themes of love, heartbreak, and Latin culture, marked a significant milestone for the Puerto Rican artist, who has been making waves in the music industry with his unique blend of reggaeton and hip-hop.
Kendrick Lamar's critically-acclaimed album "Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers" also took home three Grammys, including Best Rap Album. The album, which features a fusion of jazz, funk, and hip-hop, has been praised for its lyrical depth and musical complexity.
But what was perhaps most notable about this year's ceremony was the growing presence of artists who are using their platforms to speak out against injustice and advocate for social change. Several winners, including Bad Bunny and Lamar, have been vocal critics of ICE policies and immigration reform, and it seemed that they were sending a clear message to lawmakers and industry executives: music is not just entertainment, but also a powerful tool for social commentary.
The performance lineup was dominated by artists who are pushing the boundaries of Latinx representation in mainstream media. Bad Bunny's show-stopping set featured a star-studded lineup of guests, including Rosalía and El Granada, while Lamar's performance was notable for its socially conscious lyrics and call to action.
With the 2026 Grammys behind us, one thing is clear: this year's winners are not just musicians – they're also leaders in a new generation of social activism.

. I mean, it's no secret that Kendrick Lamar is known for using his platform to speak truth to power, and Bad Bunny is doing something similar with his Latinx roots and experiences. It's amazing to see these artists not only kill it on stage but also use their music as a tool for change 
.
. Of course, there's still work to be done, but it's heartening to see these young leaders using their voices to make a difference 
.
! like how Bad Bunny's album "Un Verano Sin Ti" even won Best Latin Album?!?! I mean, I love his music and all, but I didn't think he was that popular 
... anyway, it's so cool to see him using his platform for social change. I've been listening to Kendrick Lamar's "Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers" nonstop, have you heard it? 
- it's about time we saw more Latinx faces up there celebrating their wins 
I gotta say, it's pretty inspiring to see artists using their platforms for good. It shows that you don't have to be in the spotlight to make a difference, and that music can be a powerful tool for change 
. Kendrick Lamar's performance was especially noteworthy - he didn't just perform his songs, he gave a call to action and spoke out against injustice 
. And let's not forget Bad Bunny's album, which is all about love, heartbreak, and cultural identity... it's like he's speaking straight to our souls 
it's like, the perfect blend of jazz, funk, and hip-hop that's just so deep and complex i love how he's using his music as a tool for social commentary it's not just entertainment, it's a call to action
