The award, presented by the Los Angeles Fire Department, ended the singer’s long-running streak as the most nominated female artist without a win in the category.

Beyoncé won her first Grammy award for best country album at the 2025 Grammy Awards. The singer was presented the award by Taylor Swift for her 2024 album, 'Cowboy Carter.'

From tributes to Los Angeles amid the wildfire wreckage to political statements aimed at the Trump administration, here are Grammys' biggest moments.

Beyoncé also picked up the best country duo/group performance award for “II Most Wanted,” in tandem with Miley Cyrus. The award was given out during the Grammys’ pre-telecast Premiere Ceremony, in which the vast majority of the night’s honors are handed out prior to the performance-heavy prime-time telecast.

"I'd like to thank all the incredible country artists that accepted this album," Beyoncé said. Swift won the award herself in 2010.

Beyoncé has finally won Album of the Year. The win comes more than two decades into her career for Cowboy Carter, her history-making eighth studio album created in response to her experience being rejected from the country genre as a Black woman from the South.

Beyoncé won the album of the year Grammy with 'Cowboy Carter,' her first score in that category after previously being nominated for it four times.

The superstar is the first Black woman to take the prize this century, and the fourth in Grammy history. It was her fifth nomination for the show’s top award.
