What record did Beyoncé set at the 2023 Grammy Awards?

The story behind the answer

At the 2023 Grammy Awards, Beyoncé set the record for most Grammy wins by any artist, reaching 32 career victories. She achieved the milestone when Renaissance won Best Dance/Electronic Music Album.

Before the ceremony, the record was held by Hungarian-British conductor Georg Solti, who had won 31 Grammys. Beyoncé’s 32nd award surpassed Solti’s total, making her the most awarded artist in Grammy history across all categories.

Renaissance also earned Beyoncé her first Grammy in the dance and electronic field, reflecting the album’s house, disco, and dance influences. The achievement is sometimes misstated as the record for most nominations or most wins in a single ceremony; it is a career-total record. Beyoncé had already become the most nominated woman in Grammy history before reaching the overall wins record.
