The 68th Grammy Awards recognised different kinds of achievement in its general-field categories. This page selects four winners; it is not a reproduction of every category or a full ceremony review.
The Recording Academy’s official 2026 awards record is the reference for the complete list. Its website path contains 2025, so read the displayed ceremony identity rather than assuming the path alone defines the awards year.
The selected winners
Album of the Year went to Bad Bunny’s DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS. Record of the Year went to Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s luther. Song of the Year went to WILDFLOWER, credited to songwriters Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell. Olivia Dean won Best New Artist.
Similar names, different recognition
Record of the Year and Song of the Year are not two labels for the same award. One concerns the recording and the other songwriting. Our category-reading guide explains why credits and category names need to stay together.
The WILDFLOWER article focuses on the songwriting result rather than repeating a broad winners list.
Keep results separate from reaction
A confirmed winner does not establish that the result was universally welcomed or that another nominee was deliberately snubbed. Those are separate interpretations requiring attributed evidence.
For another awards body, the selected 2026 Oscar results illustrate the value of stating what a list includes. A short, accurately labelled selection is more useful than an incomplete list described as complete, especially when readers are searching for one particular category.
