Jon Batiste may have won the most Grammy Awards with five on Sunday night, but in some ways he was a surprise.
Jon Batiste performs"Freedom" at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, April 3, 2022, in Las Vegas.
“I was having such a good time,” Batiste said backstage after the show, describing the moment when Lenny Kravitz announced his best album victory. “I was hanging with my family, when my name came and the ‘We Are’ title was said by Lenny — such a full circle moment because we played together when I was 16. It was surreal.”
While sometimes-awkward performance partnerships have become a Grammy Award signature, Sunday's show featured mostly sparkling performances by artists on their own. BTS high-stepped their way through “Butter,” rapper Nas fronted a big band, Rodrigo and Eilish powerfully channeled youthful angst, Stapleton delivered a bluesy version of “Cold” and Brandi Carlile, introduced by the formidable duo of Joni Mitchell and Bonnie Raitt, lived up to the challenge.
The Foo Fighters won Grammys for best rock performance, song and album — the latter for a record-setting fifth time in the category. “We are really trying our hardest to remain humble at this point,” .Paak said. “But in the industry, we call that a clean sweep.”
