Frank Ocean, Björk, Adele and Drake win at 2013 Grammys
Last night’s Grammys saw a myriad of Best Fit favourites pick up the illustrious awards.
Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange took home the trophy for Best Urban Contemporary Album, with the Ocean-featured ‘No Church In the Wild’ by Kanye West and Jay-Z also winning Best Sung/Vocal Collaboration. Iceland’s Björk bagged the obscure – but no less deserved – Best Recording Package for Biophilia.
Elsewhere, Skrillex banked three awards, as did Gotye, Jay-Z and Kanye West. Mumford & Sons won two – including the Album of the Year, but it was The Black Keys who triumphed, Adele-style, taking home four trophies.
