Lizzo wins the Grammy for record of the year

Lizzo took home one of the night’s biggest awards, record of the year, for “About Damn Time.” She dedicated her award to Prince.

“When we lost Prince, I decided to dedicate my life to making positive music,” she shared while accepting the award. “And I was like ‘I don't care if my positivity bother you, what's wrong with you?’”

She continued, “And this was at a time when positive music and feel-good music wasn't mainstream at that point. And I felt very misunderstood … But I stayed true to myself because I wanted to make the world a better place so I had to be that change to make the world a better place.”

She also thanked her supporters during her speech and shared a special dedication Beyoncé. “You changed my life,” she told her.


Bonnie Raitt wins song of the year

Bonnie Raitt won the Grammy for song of the year for "Just Like That."

In her acceptance speech, Raitt, 73, said she was "so surprised" and "totally humbled" to win, calling it an "unreal moment" for her.

"I was so inspired for this song by the incredible story of the love and the grace and the generosity of someone that donates their beloved's organs to help another person live," she said.

Raitt added, "I don't write a lot of songs, but I'm so proud that you appreciate this one and what this means for me and for the rest of the songwriters who I would not be up here tonight if it wasn't for the art of the great soul-digging, hard-working people that put these songs and ideas to music."
