LAS VEGAS: Rosalia won the coveted Latin Grammy for Album of the Year on Thursday for her sweeping, avant-garde classical pop album “Lux (Complete Works)”, at the gala celebrating the best in Spanish- and Portuguese-language music.

The Spanish superstar also won Song of the Year, which recognizes songwriting, for “La Perla”. She won five awards in total, also taking Best Pop Song, Best Short Form Music Video and Best Alternative Music Album.

Argentina’s Milo J pulled off an upset to win Record of the Year for “Nino”, beating the likes of Karol G and Mon Laferte at the 27th annual ceremony in Las Vegas.

Rosalia, who opened the show with an ethereal performance blending songs from the album, entered the night as one of the favorites.

“To all the people who told me I wasn’t good enough, or that my music was too weird, I’m thankful I didn’t listen to a damn word,” she said onstage. “Now I’m winning these prizes.”

It was her third Latin Grammy for Album of the Year, after “El Mal Querer” in 2019 and “Motomami” in 2022.

Critical buzz around “Lux” has also made Rosalia a top contender for major Grammy nominations, due to be announced next week.

Milo J’s win came as a surprise for the 20-year-old roots rapper, who blends folk elements into his music. He said he considers “Nino” the song “I’m most proud of out of everything I’ve created so far”. “Long live Argentine folk music!” he said.

Argentine duo Ca7RIEL & Paco Amoroso won three awards. Karol G, who delivered a theatrical performance with a mariachi band, won two, including best musica urbana album.
