It was an awesome Award-Show in Los Angeles. The 58th Annual Grammy Awards were held Monday night. Taylor Swift got her second award in the category „Best Album“ for her latests Release “1989” and Kendrick Lamar won the most awards this year. The 28-year-old rapper earned his awards for: best rap song, best rap performance, best rap/sung collaboration, best music video and best rap album.
An a-cappella performance of Earth, Wind & Fire’s – “That’s The Way of the World” was a high-spirited celebration of the „Life of Late“ band founder Maurice White. Lady Gaga honored David Bowie with a performance of his greatest hits.
Adele was the Highlight of the evening – but with some technical problems. She struggled through her performance of the Song “All I Ask”, which was disturbed by several technical issues. Her microphone lost his signal and another guitar (perhaps the sound check of Justin Bieber?), was hearable throughout her song. Talking about Justin Bieber: This year he won his first Grammy for the best dance recording.

According to her Twitter post, Adele takes the technical issues really easy:
“The piano mics fell on to the piano strings, that’s what the guitar sound was. It made it sound out of tune. Shit happens. X”
