Rosalía won album of the year at the 27th Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas on Thursday night for 'Lux', her orchestral fourth studio album. The victory made the Spanish singer a three-time winner of the ceremony's top prize as a lead artist.

The Sant Esteve Sesrovires-born performer previously won album of the year in 2019 for 'El Mal Querer' and in 2022 for 'Motomami'. 'Lux', released in November 2025 through Columbia Records, was recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra. It features lyrics in more than a dozen languages, though Spanish dominates the record and kept it eligible under Latin Recording Academy rules.

The album entered the ceremony as one of the most nominated projects of the eligibility window, which ran from June 2025 to May 2026. Critics at outlets including Pitchfork and The Guardian named it among the best albums of 2025. Its lead single, 'Berghain', featuring Björk and Yves Tumor, drew particular praise for fusing classical arrangement with experimental pop.

The ceremony, held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and broadcast in the United States by Univision, closed a year in which Spanish-language music extended its reach in global streaming charts. The Latin Recording Academy has expanded its voting membership in recent years. Its leadership has said that expansion was designed to broaden the range of artists recognised in the general categories.

The win strengthens Rosalía's position heading into awards season in the English-speaking market. The Recording Academy announces nominations for the 2027 Grammy Awards later this month, and 'Lux' is widely expected to feature in contention there as well.
