2016 will not be remembered as a stellar year for the Grammys.

Adele struggled with technical issues; Rihanna and Lauryn Hill didn’t show up due to illness; Gaga paid tribute or butchered Bowie depending on your point of view; Pitbull recreated Benny Hill with Sofia Vergara and Taylor Swift put Kanye in his place. Lamar didn’t completely clean up either, beaten by the twin pop powers of Taylor Swift and Mark Ronson.

Here’s a snippet from our wrap:

Taylor Swift’s 1989 took the album of the year awards at the 58th Grammy awards at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Monday night. Having opened the show with a version of her hit Out of the Woods, the singer made a defiant acceptance speech which seemed to allude to her argument with Kanye West earlier in the week. The rapper’s new song Famous, referring to Swift, claims: “I made that bitch famous.” Swift pointed out in her speech that she is the first woman to win album of the year twice and added: “I want to say to all the young women out there –there are going to be people along the way who are going to try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.”

Thanks so much for your comments and tweets and see you next year for more performances from Adele. Byeeeee!
