The 59th Annual Grammy Awards has wrapped and it was one for the books — with surprising sweeps and snubs. The big winners of the night included Adele (Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Album of the Year etc.) and Chance the Rapper (Rap Album, Best New Artist, Rap Performance.) Solange also walked away with her first Grammy.

But not everyone was lucky, including Rihanna, who, while nominated 8 times walked away empty handed, and Beyonce only won 2 awards, losing to Adele in every main category.
