Amy Winehouse bagged 5 major awards in the recently concluded Grammy awards held at Staples Center in Los Angeles. From her six nod, she won five including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, New Artist, Pop Vocal Album and Female Pop Vocal Performance. She sang "You Know I'm No Good" and "Rehab" via satellite from London as she received her awards with tears of joy. We all know her drug-addiction issues but this recognition serves as her catalyst to promote her music more than her image.

Aside from Winehouse, Kanye West's Graduation album garnered four awards including Rap Album of the Year, Rap Solo Performance for his song "Stronger", Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for "Southside", and Rap Song for "Good Life". There are notable performances in that night including Alicia Keys "duet" with Frank Sinatra (appeared in black and white on a video screen) with the song "Learnin' the Blues". Not only that Kanye rapped Stronger with Daft Punk filling the beat as the former dedicates his performance to his late mother Donda. Seems like Grammy gives chance to our demented singer.
