Everyone Who Has Won 20 or More Grammys

At the 67th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday (Feb. 2), Beyoncé extended her lead as the artist with the most Grammy wins in history. She now has 35 of the shiny gramophones.

It was two years ago that Bey surpassed the late classical conductor Sir Georg Solti for the most wins by anyone in Grammy history. Her four wins that night upped her total of Grammys won to 32, one more than Solti won over a 35-year span (1963-1998).

Beyoncé has been setting records at the Grammys for years. In 2010, she became the first female artist to win six Grammys in one night. In 2020, she became the woman with the most career Grammy wins (28), surpassing Alison Krauss. This year she finally won album of the year for the first time for Cowboy Carter. It was just her second win in a so-called Big Four category, following her song of the year award in 2010 for co-writing “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).”

Kendrick Lamar joined the 20+ Grammy club at the 2025 ceremony. He has won 22 Grammys, and is now just three awards shy of equaling Jay-Z‘s record as the rapper with the most Grammys. Lamar won five awards this year, including two of the Big Four awards – record and song of the year for “Not Like Us.”

Here’s a complete list of everyone who has won 20 or more Grammys in competition. The years shown are the year of the awards ceremony (starting in 1971, the year of the live telecast). At the end of each entry, we make note of any special merit awards these people have received from the Recording Academy. (Those awards are not included in the tally of competitive awards won.)
