Black artists without a doubt shined at the Grammys this year.
From Beyoncé’s perfectly regal performance while carrying her twins to A Tribe Called Quest’s call for America to resist when it comes to injustice, there were plenty of moments that made us proud. Even Blue Ivy made a political statement, donning a black panther on the back of her Prince-inspired Gucci suit.
Throughout this year’s show, our voices, music and influence were amplified. Here are 11 amazing moments worth celebrating.
