The 58th annual Grammy Awards took place last night, and now we have a complete list of Grammy winners.

LL Cool J hosted this year’s festivities, which were held at Los Angeles’ Staples Center, for the fifth year in a row. Performances from the biggest names in music took place, with everyone from Taylor Swift and Weeknd to Little Big Town and Carrie Underwood performing.

Speaking of Taylor Swift, the pop singer took home the award for Album of the Year for the second time, and while accepting the award, she took the opportunity to call out rapper Kanye West. Although Swift didn’t mention Kanye by name, it was undeniable as to who she was referring to.

“There are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success, or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame,” Swift said during her acceptance speech. “But if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you’re going, you’ll look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there, and that will be the greatest feeling in the world.”

Other notable wins included Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” which was named Record of the Year and Best Pop Duo performance. British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran won his first ever Grammy Awards, including one for Song of the Year for “Thinking Out Loud.” Kendrick Lamar didn’t win any of the four top categories (Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, or Best New Artist), but he still walked away with five gramophone statues: Best Rap Album, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, and Best Music Video for his collaboration with Taylor Swift on her song “Bad Blood.”
