Now that you've read all the major storylines about Music's Biggest Night, find out what history was made in New York on Jan. 28. Here are 14 records that were set at the 60th GRAMMY Awards.

Watch: Bruno Mars Wins Album Of The Year

1. Bruno Mars' Sweeps Three Big Four Categories

Bruno Mars swept the awards for Record, Album and Song Of The Year. He's the first male artist to sweep these three awards in one year since Eric Clapton did it 25 years ago.

2. Mars Captures Record, Song Of The Year

Mars is the first artist to win Record and Song Of The Year in the same year with different songs since Carole King achieved the feat 46 years ago. Mars took Record Of The Year with "24K Magic" and Song Of The Year with "That's What I Like." King won Record Of The Year with "It's Too Late" and Song Of The Year with "You've Got A Friend."

3. "That's What I Like": 8 Songwriters Recognized

"That's What I Like," with eight credited songwriters, set a new record as the Song Of The Year winner with the most co-writers. The old record, shared by seven songs, was four co-writers.

4. Alessia Cara: Canada's Best New Artist

Brampton, Ontario, native Alessia Cara won Best New Artist. She's the first artist who was born in Canada to win in this category.

Watch: Alessia Cara Wins Best New Artist

5. Kendrick Lamar Sweeps The Rap Categories (Again)

Kendrick Lamar swept all four awards in the Rap Field. He also swept all four rap awards two years ago. He's the first artist to take home all of the rap awards more than once. Eminem swept the 2000 rap awards (when there were three). Kanye West swept the 2011 awards (when there were four).

6. Kraftwerk's First

Kraftwerk won Best Dance/Electronic Album for 3-D The Catalogue. This is Kraftwerk's first GRAMMY win, though the group received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Recording Academy in 2014.

7. The Weeknd Doubles Up On Best Urban Contemporary Album

The Weeknd's Starboy took Best Urban Contemporary Album. The Weeknd won in this category two years ago for Beauty Behind The Madness. He's the first artist to win twice in the category since it was added in 2012.

8. Little Big Town's Best Country Duo/Group Performance Triple Play

Little Big Town won Best Country Duo/Group Performance for "Better Man." It's the quartet's third win in this category, which is more than any other duo or group since the category was streamlined in 2011. The group won for "Pontoon" (2012) and "Girl Crush" (2015).

9. Chris Stapleton Wins Second Best Country Album

Chris Stapleton's From A Room: Volume 1 won Best Country Album. He's the first male solo artist to win twice in this category since the category was re-introduced in 1994.

10. Shakira's Best Latin Pop Album Mark

Shakira took Best Latin Pop Album for El Dorado. The Colombian superstar is the first female artist to win twice in this category (which dates to 1983). She won 17 years ago for MTV Unplugged.

11. The Rolling Stones Roll With Blues Win

The Rolling Stones took Best Traditional Blues Album for Blue & Lonesome. The legendary band took the 1994 award for Best Rock Album for Voodoo Lounge. They are the first artists to win in both of these categories.

12. La La Land Soundtrack Doubles Up

La La Land won both Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media and Best Score Soundtrack For Visual Media. La La Land is the first film to win in both of these categories since Ray took both awards for 2005.

13. Greg Kurstin Joins Elite Producer Company

Greg Kurstin took Producer of the Year, Non-Classical for the second straight year. He's the first producer to win two years in a row in this category since Babyface won three years running from 1995-1997.

14. Kendrick Lamar Joins With Best Music Video Win

Lamar took Best Music Video for "Humble." He won in this category two years ago for "Bad Blood," a collaboration with Taylor Swift. Lamar is the first rapper to win twice in this category. (Johnny Cash, Peter Gabriel, Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson are also two-time winners in this category.)

Bruno Mars takes home Best R&B Album for '24K Magic' at the 60th GRAMMY Awards

Jan 28, 2018 - 2:56 pm

Bruno Mars at the 60th GRAMMY Awards is approaching the telecast having won three-for-three of the R&B categories that were presented at the preceding Premiere Ceremony. 24K Magic now has the GRAMMY Award for Best R&B Album.

While Mars went on to rack up nothing but wins this special night, it is worth some special reflection on the category Best R&B Album in light of his new place in it. In the course of our new century, its male winners have been D'Angelo and John Legend twice each, Babyface, Chris Brown, Robert Glasper, Maxwell, and Luther Vandross. For the women that list is Alicia Keys twice, India.Arie, Mary J. Blige, Toni Braxton, Lalah Hathaway, Jennifer Hudson, and Chaka Khan. For this year only, Bruno Mars has become so everywhere while being completely respected for his craft in every major aspect with the exception of the greatest guitar players of all time. But those lists of musical leaders go past R&B to the heart of music, go to a level that makes a person choke up on memories of tears and life and for the lucky, love as well. 24K Magic is now Mars' addition to a list that is not completely timeless because the GRAMMY voters selected them. These albums and artists are timeless, and that is why their names belong there.

In our oral history of Album Of The Year nominees, Bruno Mars said about 24K Magic that "it was the opening to a movie." He said he asked himself, "I am shooting a movie and I need the opening to let everybody know what time it is, what’s that going to sound like?" Well apparently in this category it sounds a little like Chaka Khan and a little like Luther Vandross. Mighty impressive company to be in.
