"How we feeling tonight? Yes, you know, the vibes are so right, at Club Keys, I want to welcome y'all to Club Keys, where the music is cool and timeless and the vibe is so sensational. I've been think so much about the people and the music that have inspired me and I want to give a shouted out to Hazel Scott, because I always wanted to play two pianos," Keys said.
Keys' medley included Killing Me Softly by Roberta Flack, Lucid Dreams by Juice Wrld, Unforgettable by Nat King Cole, Use Somebody by Kings Of Leon, In My Feelings by Drake, Boo'd Up by Ella Mai and Doo-Wop (That Thing) by Fugees singer Lauryn Hill.

Meanwhile, Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover made history as he took Record of the Year for his politically provocative This Is America-- the first hip-hop track to win the honour, while night's biggest award-- Album of the Year-- went to British singer Kacey Musgraves for Golden Hour.
This is America, about police brutality and racism, also took Grammys for Song of the Year, Best Music Video and Best Rap Performance. But Gambino was not present at the show to celebrate the milestone.
