At the 65th Grammy Awards on Sunday, the 41-year-old superstar, Beyoncé, brought her overall total to 32 by taking home four awards, including best dance/electronic album for “Renaissance.”

For “Break My Soul” and “Plastic Off the Sofa,” she received the best dance/electronic recording and best traditional R&B performance Grammys premiere event honors, respectively. She also won best R&B song for “Cuff It” earlier in the live broadcast, but she didn’t claim the trophy in person since she was reportedly stuck in traffic.

When Beyoncé won her 28th Grammy in 2021, she broke Alison Krauss’ record for the most Grammys won by a female artist and tied Quincy Jones for second place among active musicians.

She surpassed the late classical conductor Sir Georg Solti, who held the record with 31 Grammy Awards out of 74 nominations, with her fourth victory on Sunday.

Just five months after his passing at age 84, Solti received his final honor, the Grammy Award for best opera recording, during the 40th annual ceremony.

Beyoncé honored her “beautiful husband” Jay-Z, her three children, her parents, and her late Uncle Jonny, to whom she had previously dedicated “Renaissance,” in her acceptance speech for best dance/electronic album.

Beyoncé’s uncle Jonny introduced her to “a lot of the music and culture that serve as inspiration for this album” before he passed away from an AIDS-related illness, she stated on her website.

As previously reported, “Renaissance” has a strong foundation in LGBTQ-initiated house and club music. Big Freedia, Kevin Aviance, Moi Renee, Honey Dijon, and Ts Madison are among the LGBT icons represented on the track selection.

“I’d like to thank the queer community for your love and for inventing this genre,” she said onstage

Beyoncé was nominated for five other awards this year, including album of the year for “Renaissance” and record of the year for “Break My Soul,” but she lost both to Lizzo and Harry Styles. She and Jay-Z are presently tied for the most nominations in history (88).
