Last night the star-studded, 54th Annual Grammy Awards took place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The biggest night in music was filled an abundance of high points (Adele taking home 6 Grammy Awards) and great performances to go along with a major fail towards the end of the show with Nicki Minaj’s performance of “Roman Holiday”. On short notice, the Grammy’s also did nice job of recognizing the loss of Whitney Houston as well as other legends that we’ve lost in 2011 and 2012. For those who missed last nights show, here’s a recap of last nights winners and performers in hip-hop.
