Na ovogodišnjoj dodjeli Grammyja najviše nagrada osvojila je Beyoncé, a slijede ju Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift i Megan Thee Stallion. Beyoncé je bila nominirana u devet kategorija a osvojila je četiri nagrade. Pri tome je oborila rekord u broju osvojenih Grammyja od strane bilo kojeg izvođača. Odmah iza nje slijedi Megan Thee Stallion s tri osvojena Grammya, uključujući Grammy za najbolju novu umjetnicu, dok je Billie Eilish odnijela dva Grammya.  Nagrada za album godine pripala je Taylor Swift za ‘Folklore’.

Samoj dodjeli nagrada Grammy 2021. prethodio je kontroverzni događaj jer jedan od vlasnika najvećeg hita 2020. godine ‘Blinding lights’ The Weeknd uopće nije bio nominiran nakon čega je izjavio da više neće dopustiti da njegova izdavačka kuća prijavljuje njegovu glazbu na razmatranje za nagradu Grammy. Tijekom ceremonije, čelni čovjek  Grammyja Harvey Mason Jr. zamolio je glazbene zvijezde da “rade s nama, a ne protiv nas” u stvaranju nove glazbene organizacije Recording Academy “na koju svi možemo biti ponosni”.
