“I never dreamed that this record would be met with such love, such warmth, such positivity,” Musgraves said while accepting the honor. “It seriously means the world to me. I love country music with everything that I am, and I’m very proud to be able to get to share my version of that with the world.”

It was also a big night for Childish Gambino, who’s song “This is America” won four awards, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year, a first for a rap song to achieve such feat.
