Rosalia left Las Vegas on Thursday night with the Latin Grammys' album of the year and song of the year, while Milo J took record of the year. The 27th ceremony was held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, and the Recording Academy's winners list marks all four of the general-field awards.
Album of the year went to Rosalia's LUX (Complete Works). Song of the year went to "La Perla", which she recorded with Yahritza y Su Esencia, with songwriting credit shared among Noah Goldstein, David Rodriguez, Rosalia, Ryan Tedder and Dylan Wiggins. Record of the year went to Milo J for "Nino", and best new artist to Aria Vega.
Who won album, record and song of the year at the Latin Grammys?
The big three split between two artists. Rosalia took album and song, the two awards that go to the whole work and to the writing, while Milo J's "Nino" won record of the year, the prize for the recording itself. Our preview of the night had listed Rosalia's LUX and Milo J's La Vida Era Mas Corta among the ten album of the year nominees.
An AFP report carried by Yahoo Entertainment in the early hours of Friday counted five wins for Rosalia, taking in album of the year, best alternative album, best pop song, best short-form music video and song of the year as a songwriter. It put Milo J on four, adding best folk album, best urban or urban fusion performance and best recording package to his record of the year.
What did Edgar Barrera, Karol G and Anitta win?
Edgar Barrera, who went into the night with a field-leading 10 nominations, was named producer of the year, according to the Academy list. The songwriter of the year award went to Sara Schell.
Karol G won best urban music album for Tropicoqueta, and Anitta took the award for best Portuguese-language contemporary pop album, the same Yahoo report says. Both had been nominated for album of the year, so neither converted that shot into the top prize, but each left with a category win from a night in which the Recording Academy handed out awards across 60 categories.
What happens next for the winners?
The Academy's list shows the full set of winners across all 60 categories, covering recordings released between 1 June 2025 and 31 May 2026, the same eligibility window the nominations used. Rosalia's and Milo J's tallies depend on the source: the AFP count is five and four, but other listings of the night's categories can differ, so treat the totals as provisional until the Academy publishes its own.
Rosalia's album and song wins come from the same record, LUX (Complete Works), and Milo J's record of the year is one of several awards tied to his album. Barrera, for his part, had been credited as album producer on Tropicoqueta and MUDA, both album of the year nominees, before the night began. The Academy's own full list, linked above, is the reference to check the remaining categories against.
