The Billboard Music Awards are one of the music industry’s biggest nights. Unlike the Grammy awards which are distributed based on votes from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, the Billboard awards are given out based on streaming volumes and radio play, album, and digital songs sales, touring statistics, and engagement on social media.

Entertainment With 31 golden gramophones to his credit, the most decorated musician in Grammy Awards history — the late orchestra conductor Georg Solti — is hardly a household name. But there are plenty of mainstream pop superstars — from Stevie and Kanye to Beyoncé — who have racked up those trademark trophies, too. In fact, Queen Bey made history by tying a living legend for most wins at Grammys 2021. Here are the other top 10 nonclassical winners of music’s biggest night. 1. Beyoncé: 28Yes, she made history at Grammys 2021: With nine nominations — and three wins — at this year’s ceremony, she has become the most decorated woman in Grammys history. Beyoncé, 40, first received Grammy love as a member of Destiny’s Child, winning two awards for their No. 1 smash “Say My Name” in 2001. Since then, Grammy has said her name 26 more times, including five wins with husband Jay-Z — for their hit singles “Crazy in Love” and “Drunk in Love,” plus their joint album “Everything Is Love.” Kanye West, Beyoncé and Stevie Wonder are among Grammy’s top award winners.FilmMagicStill, Beyoncé has never won Album of the Year throughout her career — she’s wasn’t up for the 2021 honor because she didn’t release a project during the eligibility period — but she is the most nominated woman ever with 79 nods. 1. Quincy Jones: 28Beyoncé tied one of the music industry’s most iconic and respected figures with her 2021 win. Not only was Jones, 89, a part of Michael Jackson’s historic “Thriller” sweep in 1984 as producer of that classic LP, he also won Album of the Year for his own “Back on the Block” in 1991. Right behind Solti on the all-time list, Q first triumphed for Best Instrumental Arrangement (of the Count Basie Orchestra’s “I Can’t Stop Loving You”) in 1964. 3. Alison Krauss: 27The bluegrass queen, 50, has tasted victory both on her own and with her group Union Station. But her biggest wins came with Robert Plant in 2009, when the unlikely pair won Album of the Year (“Raising Sand”) and Record of the Year (“Please Read the Letter”). 4. Stevie Wonder: 25This R&B icon, 71, holds the distinction of winning Album of the Year three times — a record he shares with Frank Sinatra and Paul Simon. He triumphed for three consecutive LPs: 1973’s “Innervisions,” 1974’s “Fulfillingness’ First Finale” and 1976’s “Songs in the Key of Life.” 4. John Williams: 25The legendary film composer, 90, just broke his own record with his 52nd Oscar nomination (Best Original Score for “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker”). But while he’s only taken home five Academy Awards, he’s won nearly five times as much at the Grammys, most recently in 2017. 6. Chick Corea: 23This late jazz pianist won Grammys in every decade since the ’70s, starting in 1976 (Best Jazz Performance by a Group for “No Mystery,” with Return to Forever) and most recently in 2015 (Best Jazz Instrumental Album for “Trilogy”). It’s no wonder Corea, who died in February 2021 at 79, was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999. 6. Jay-Z: 23Beyoncé’s hubby is a big-time Grammy boss, too, with the lion’s share of his hardware coming in the rap categories — his first being for Best Rap Album (“Vol. 2 … Hard Knock Life”) back in 1999. But the 52-year-old has never won any awards in the Big Four fields (Album, Record and Song of the Year, plus Best New Artist). 8. U2: 22Bono, 61, and company have won the prestigious Album of the Year twice — first for their 1987 classic “The Joshua Tree” and then for 2004’s “How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb.” But they’ve also claimed victories twice in two other Big Four categories: Record of the Year (“Beautiful Day,” “Walk On”) and Song of the Year (“Beautiful Day,” “Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own”). 8. Kanye West: 22Despite three consecutive Album of the Year nominations (for 2004’s “The College Dropout,” 2005’s “Late Registration” and 2007’s “Graduation”), Yeezy, 44, has never copped that coveted prize. Still, he has been able to console himself with 22 other gramophones, most recently winning three awards with Jay-Z in 2013. 10. Vince Gill: 21Starting with his 1990 victory for Best Country Vocal Performance, Male (for “When I Call Your Name”), the singer-guitarist, 64, has come up big in the country categories over the years. But his last win came in another field: Best American Roots Song (“Kid Sister”) in 2017. With Post wires
Most Awarded Artist Of All Time? This is a tough question. Who gets the coveted spot? Some think it is Beyonce. While others believe it is Michael Jackson. Who do you all think it is? Who Is The Music Artist With The Most Awards?Most Awarded Artist Of All Time? It is very tricky to name the most awarded artist. And, some people have very differing views. A lot of names can fit the bill. Especially since, artists such as Beyonce, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Jay-Z, and Lil Wayne come to mind. Or at least, most people believe Michael Jackson gets the highest honor. Should the deceased artists be considered for this honor or not? Of course, it would be difficult to discount Whitney or Michael’s awards from the equation, as reported by GH Trending Links. And, who would have the heart to do so, I know I wouldn’t. Both Whitney and Michael’s contribution to music is legendary. Therefore, we will include them. Having said this, let’s take a look at this phenomenon. First off, Michael Jackson has been awarded 834 awards, Beyonce has 688 so far, and Whitney Houston had 657. Are you surprised that Michael( The King of Pop), not Beyonce has the highest amount of awards? When we look at each person’s body of work clearly they deserve top billing. Michael Jackson – Thriller (Official Video)
Here is a list of some of their awards: Michael – 13 Grammys, 6 Brits, 5 Billboard, 24 American Music, 16 Guinness World Records, and 2 Primetime Emmy awards. Whitney – 2 Emmys, 6 Grammys, 16 Billboard,22 American Music Awards. Beyonce – 13 Billboard, 9 American Music Awards, 31 BET Awards, 5 Golden Globes, 28 Grammys.
