A Record-Breaking Night At The Latin Grammys
Puerto Rican hip-hop duo Calle 13 made Latin Grammy history on Thursday night, winning six out of 10 categories they were nominated for, bringing their career total to 19 awards.
Their win for “Latinoamerica” as Song of the Year was the record-breaker, surpassing the previous record 17 awards held by Juanes.
Their album “Entren Los Que Quieran” is so eclectic that it swept awards across several categories in this most diverse of music awards shows, including Urban, Alternative and Tropical.
The night before the ceremony, Shakira was named Person of the Year by the Latin Recording Academy. The non-televised event closed with the honoree’s performance of a song that celebrates her hometown, “En Barranquilla me quedo.”
