Under natten hölls American Music Awards med gräddan av den amerikanska artisteliten på plats. I hiphop-kategorierna sopade Drake naturligtvis banan med konkurrenterna och vann med “VIEWS i kategorierna för bästa album, låt och artist. Rihanna å sin sida tog hem flertalet statyetter i r&b/soul-kategorierna och Ty Dolla $ign prisades för Fifth Harmony-samarbetet “Work From Home”. Mest välförtjänt är nog ändå Beyoncés vinst i kategorin för bästa turné där hon drog det längre strået framför Madonna och Bruce Springsteen med “The Formation World Tour”.
