<v Speaker 1>Pop Demon Hunters. Shall I Say, featuring ej Audrey Remy.

21
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Song Written for Visual Media. I mean they had to.

22
00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I told you guys in that K Pop episode. We've

23
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:10.919
<v Speaker 1>already released maybe three or four episodes ago Hunterricks Golden

24
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Golden by Hunterricks went triple platinum. Diamond in my home

25
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:23.039
<v Speaker 1>like literally every day we been hiding. Now I'm shining.

26
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.120
<v Speaker 1>So congratulations to the project and to those girls. This

27
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.159
<v Speaker 1>is the first time a K pop song has ever

28
00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 1>won a Grammy in any category, and in a move

29
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>that shocked the room, British singer Lola Young won Best

30
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Pop Solo Performance for her song Messy, beating out heavyweights

31
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:50.719
<v Speaker 1>like Sabrina Carpenter and Lady Gaga. She was so unprepared

32
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.439
<v Speaker 1>she actually cursed on the microphone during her acceptance speech.

33
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I love a good unfoldment and if I just to

34
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.360
<v Speaker 1>rewind it back. It was the first in a pre show,

35
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:13.639
<v Speaker 1>Golden by Hunterricks. One in the pre show, Okay, I

36
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:16.159
<v Speaker 1>just wanted to clarify for all my music heads that

37
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>want to clock my tea. Anyways, let's keep it going.

38
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:31.479
<v Speaker 1>We had some major genre sweeps. They had a huge

39
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:36.919
<v Speaker 1>night for the Alternative Crowd winning Best Rock Album, and

40
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.319
<v Speaker 1>that is the Cure. The Cure had a huge night

41
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:46.319
<v Speaker 1>Best Rock Album for Songs of a Lost World, So

42
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:52.680
<v Speaker 1>congratulations to them. Then we have the Big Four history

43
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:56.800
<v Speaker 1>in every language. Let's start with the crown jewel, bad

44
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:00.719
<v Speaker 1>bunny to call them Album of the Year for Debi

45
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Der mass Photos. Debbie Der mass Photos. This is a monumental.

46
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.759
<v Speaker 1>It's the first time a Spanish language album has ever

47
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.480
<v Speaker 1>won the night's biggest prize. He dedicated the win to

48
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:21.920
<v Speaker 1>immigrants everywhere, a theme that echoed through the entire night.

49
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Is it safe to say that the United States is

50
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Bilinguo now? Like? Can we dub Spanish as our official

51
00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 1>second language? Just saying anyways. The rest of the Big

52
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Four was a heavy hitter parade. We have Record of

53
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:44.720
<v Speaker 1>the Year Kendrick Lamar and Siza for Luther. Kendrick is

54
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:52.199
<v Speaker 1>actually now officially the most awarded rapper in Grammy history,

55
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>passing Jay Z next. Actually, can we get a round

56
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:15.240
<v Speaker 1>of applause for that? Congratulations Kendrick for a Song of

57
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 1>the Year, Billie Eilish and Phineas for Wildflower. That's another

58
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:27.199
<v Speaker 1>trophy for the Highland Park Legends Best new artist Olivia

59
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:31.639
<v Speaker 1>Dean Chappelle Rone, which is last year's winner, handed over

60
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>the baton and a really touching passing of the guard moment,

61
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:41.920
<v Speaker 1>shall I say? And then we have egot and legend

62
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:46.560
<v Speaker 1>status Egot. Do you guys know what egot means? Emmy, Grammy,

63
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Oscar Tony And that goes to Steven Spielberg. He secured

64
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:59.040
<v Speaker 1>the g he needed, winning Best Music Film for Music

65
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:04.600
<v Speaker 1>by John Wells. Stephen Spielbert is a producer for Music

66
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>by John Williams, so he is now officially one of

67
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>only twenty two people to achieve EGO status Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony.

68
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:35.639
<v Speaker 1>So congratulations to Steven Spielberg. Now on the performance side,

69
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:39.319
<v Speaker 1>the energy was chaotic in the best of ways. We

70
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:44.040
<v Speaker 1>have Lady Gaga performing Abra Kadabra in a costume that

71
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 1>can only be described as feather forward and Justin Bieber Bieber,

72
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:54.759
<v Speaker 1>Justin Bieber. I think we have a Justin Bieber episode

73
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>by the way, so go check that out after this

74
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:01.600
<v Speaker 1>one if you haven't already listened to it. Anyways, Justin

75
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Bieber performed Yukon and get this just his boxers and socks,

76
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:12.639
<v Speaker 1>which is a bold choice for February Valentine's Day romance

77
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's pretty good looking, so he can pull. I'm

78
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>sure people had things to say, but here in Crash

79
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 1>Course Pod we stamped that we definitely supported and actually

80
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:42.360
<v Speaker 1>he wore from his brand Skylark sky l r K

81
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>and Purple Satin to Mattress guitar. It was definitely a

82
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.959
<v Speaker 1>bold marketing move for his new fashion line and like

83
00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:54.319
<v Speaker 1>I said, we support that on the Crash Course Pod.

84
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of more performances, Tyler the Creator didn't just perform.

85
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:10.879
<v Speaker 1>He arguably had the most theatrical and explosive set of

86
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:16.199
<v Speaker 1>the night. His performance was a massive era's medley that

87
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.839
<v Speaker 1>bridged his Chromacopia twenty twenty four and Don't Tap the

88
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:25.199
<v Speaker 1>Glass twenty twenty five albums. It was packed with stunts

89
00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:28.720
<v Speaker 1>that had social media buzzing for hours. So the entrance.

90
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.679
<v Speaker 1>He marched onto stage in full Chromacopia military regalia flanked

91
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:36.879
<v Speaker 1>by a squad of soldiers to perform thought I Was Dead.

92
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:43.320
<v Speaker 1>The cameo, and a surprising twist was Regina King. She

93
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.840
<v Speaker 1>appeared in a spoken word interlude as an auto mechanic,

94
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:52.159
<v Speaker 1>transitioning the set into his next era. Tyler performed a

95
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:55.799
<v Speaker 1>crazy stunt, he jumped into a red Ferrari to perform

96
00:08:55.879 --> 00:09:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Sugar on My Tongue and a choreographed accident, he actually

97
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>crashed the car on stage and ran over a body

98
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:10.879
<v Speaker 1>double of his former Chromacopia persona, symbolizing the death of

99
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:16.399
<v Speaker 1>that era. The finale ended the set by lighting a

100
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:20.720
<v Speaker 1>fuse and literally blowing up a gas station set behind him,

101
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:23.799
<v Speaker 1>leaving him standing at the front of the stage covered

102
00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>in soot. So like wow. Speaking of Tyler, he was

103
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:35.240
<v Speaker 1>nominated for his six awards, including Album of the Year.

104
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.879
<v Speaker 1>He took home one specific trophy on Sunday Night, which

105
00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:43.279
<v Speaker 1>is best Album Cover for Chromacopia. This was a special

106
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.159
<v Speaker 1>win as it was the first year the category was

107
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to reinstated for the main telecast. So very interesting. And

108
00:09:53.080 --> 00:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>then we have Sabrina Carpenter. Following her debut performance at

109
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:06.919
<v Speaker 1>the twenty twenty five ceremony, she returned to the stage

110
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:10.559
<v Speaker 1>Sunday Night with a high concept for her hit single

111
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:14.559
<v Speaker 1>man Child. The theme she transformed the stage into a

112
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.399
<v Speaker 1>busy old school airport, even taking on the role of

113
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a captain. The performance ended with her pulling out a

114
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:25.440
<v Speaker 1>live white dove, a moment that quickly went viral and

115
00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:28.799
<v Speaker 1>drew a critique from Peta. You know, Peta, they don't

116
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:33.159
<v Speaker 1>play on the fashion side. On the red carpet, she

117
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.919
<v Speaker 1>wore a custom Volentino gown dripping in pearls and crystals,

118
00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful, which was widely cited as one of the

119
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:46.559
<v Speaker 1>best looks of the night. So coming off the success

120
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.200
<v Speaker 1>of her latest album, Man's Best Friend, she was one

121
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:52.519
<v Speaker 1>of the most nominated artists of the night, with six nods,

122
00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>including Album of the Year. However, she didn't take home

123
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:00.799
<v Speaker 1>the top prize this year, but her performance was praised

124
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:04.879
<v Speaker 1>by Trevor Noah as a standout moment of the broadcast,

125
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:08.200
<v Speaker 1>so you know, shout out to Sabrina Carpenter. She did

126
00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:23.679
<v Speaker 1>really well as well and looked super beautiful. The show

127
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:27.600
<v Speaker 1>also got pretty political. There was a lot of anti

128
00:11:27.720 --> 00:11:32.759
<v Speaker 1>ice sentiment, from Kailani's red carpet comment to Baillie Eilish

129
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:36.879
<v Speaker 1>stating no one is illegal on stolen Land, so we

130
00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:39.480
<v Speaker 1>could see the artists use the platform to push back

131
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:45.240
<v Speaker 1>against current immigration policies and the occupation. So yeah, it

132
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:49.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of gave a night a much heavier tone, more

133
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:55.759
<v Speaker 1>urgent weight than usual. Tributes in the memoriam segment. It

134
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:59.720
<v Speaker 1>was actually a highlight this year, post from alone and

135
00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:05.360
<v Speaker 1>a heavy metal supergroup including Slash tore through war Pigs

136
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:10.080
<v Speaker 1>for Ozzy Osbourne, while Lauren Hill led a stunning soul

137
00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:17.279
<v Speaker 1>drenched tribute to DiAngelo and ROBERTA. Flack. So well done.

138
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.200
<v Speaker 1>We also have some funny things. Well, it was a

139
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:24.600
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a classic live TV blunder from Chaer.

140
00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:29.440
<v Speaker 1>She accidentally announced the winner of Record of the Year

141
00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:34.559
<v Speaker 1>as Luther Vandross, the late singer, instead of the song

142
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:40.440
<v Speaker 1>titled Luther by Kendrick Lamar and Sissa. So, like typical

143
00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:48.200
<v Speaker 1>live television Mystike, we love your Share. I mean, I

144
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:52.480
<v Speaker 1>don't expect her to know Luther was by Kendrick and Sissa,

145
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.320
<v Speaker 1>and anyone in her age group sees Luther and automatically

146
00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:00.799
<v Speaker 1>thinks Luther Vandross. So I'm just you know, Share made

147
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:08.159
<v Speaker 1>an honest mistake. So what else can we talk about? Well,

148
00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about some recap wins for Best Music Urbana Album,

149
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Bad Bunny, Debbie Matos, Best Traditional Pop Album, Loffe, Matter

150
00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:30.639
