2026 Latin Grammy Winners Include Rosalía, Fred Again.., & Congressman-Elect Bobby Pulido

Rosalía is getting her flowers this week. On top of being the subject of a new U2 song, last night, she swept at the Latin Grammys. She won five awards for her LUX oeuvre — Album Of The Year, Song Of The Year ("La Perla"), Best Pop Song (also "La Perla"), Best Alternative Music Album, and Best Short Form Music Video (for "Sauvignon Blanc," directed by Noah Dillon). LUX also won for Best Engineered Album, which went to her team of recording and mastering engineers. This year's recognition makes Rosalía the first woman to win the Latin Grammy for Album Of The Year three times; she previously won for 2018's El Mal Querer and 2022's Motomami. She also opened the show, performing a medley of “La Rumba del Perdón,” “La Perla” and “Dios Es Un Stalker.”Edgar Barrera took home the Latin Grammy for Producer Of The Year, making him the most-awarded individual in Latin Grammy history, breaking a tie with Residente to reach 30 career wins. Argentine rapper Milo J also won big, taking home four awards — Record Of The Year for "Niño," Best Urban Performance for "Gil" with Trueno, Best Folk Album and Best Recording Package for La Vida Era Más Corta. He also performed “Solifican12” and “Gil" at the event.Another major performance came from Puerto Rican reggaeton legend Daddy Yankee, who was honored as Person Of The Year, days after being revealed as a special guest at next year's Coachella. Janet Jackson, who collaborated with Yankee on the 2018 single "Made For Now," made a surprise appearance to present.Daddy Yankee's performance celebrated decades of hits, including 2019's "Con Calma," 2018's "Dura," his 2017 hit Luis Fonsi collaboration "Despacito," 2005's "Rompe," this year's "POKITO" and, of course, 2004's "Gasolina," for which he was joined by LL Cool J, who interwove his hit "Mama Said Knock You Out." Daddy Yankee also brought out Argentine producer Bizarrap, Spanish hitmaker Bad Gyal, and Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh. Last week Bobby Pulido flipped a seat in Texas’ 15th Congressional District, and last night, he won his third Latin Grammy for Best Tejano Album. In his acceptance speech, he reiterated his retirement from music but said, “Tejano music is in very good hands.”Another unexpected takeaway from the evening is that Sting and Fred again.. are now Latin Grammy winners. Yes, all thanks to experimental rap duo CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, who took home three awards for Best Long For Music Video for "Free Spirits," Best Electronic Music Performance for "Beto's Horns - Fred Remix" with Fred again.., and Best Pop/Rock Song for "Hasta Jesús Tuvo Un Mal Día" featuring Sting.
