I Grammy Award (che prendono il nome dalla statuetta premio, che rappresenta appunto un grammofono) sono i premi più importanti nel settore musicale, considerati come l’equivalente dei premi Oscar nel mondo del cinema.
I Grammy vengono consegnati per 105 diverse categorie di contributi, suddivise rispetto a 30 generi musicali, dal pop al gospel all’hip hop.
La 57ª edizione dei Grammy Awards si svolgerà l’8 febbraio 2015 allo Staples Center di Los Angeles, California. Lo show verrà trasmesso dal vivo sul canale televisivo statunitense CBS.
