The 2020 Latin GRAMMYs honored musical excellence and the power of music during these trying times on Thursday (November 19).
Co-hosted by Oscar-nominated actress Yalitza Aparicio, singer Carlos Rivera and TV host Ana Brenda, it was an exciting evening filled with uplifting performances across the Latin music spectrum – including reggaeton, pop, Regional Mexican, and tropical bangers.
Pitbull not only paid tribute to the frontliners but also performed with them – he and a band of first responders came together onstage to perform his single, “I Believe That We Will Win.” The evening also showcased performances by Bad Bunny, Karol G, Pedro Capo and Marc Anthony, and more.
The night’s big winners are Natalia Lafourcade, Carlos Vives, and Rosalia, who each took home three awards each. A number of artists also became first-time Latin GRAMMY awardees, including Camilo for Best Pop Song with “TuTu,” Chiquis for Best Banda Album with Playlist, and, Mike Bahia who was crowned this year’s Best New Artist.
