Critic Reviews
Season 65 Review:
Cool heads have prevailed when it comes to any annoying nods toward forced virality that might have been considered. ... Some of the performances felt quite ordinary, a casualty of the reigning sensibility that artists’ biggest songs should be performed. ... Mulling over that enduring puzzler [Beyoncé not winning album of the year], versus the pleasures of seeing Salt N Pepa, Public Enemy and friends in the flesh, together, in an all-timer of a set— maybe the glass is still more than half-full. Sins of omission and all.

Season 65 Review:
There were highs — in the performances, tributes and surprise wins — which created a level of excitement that seemed almost foreign to the ceremony. But there were also the lows: the disappointing losses and the mawkish lessons laced through the night. ... Progress was on the mind of the Recording Academy this year — both in the awards given and the structure of the show. But there were too many contradictions and historical elisions — like dedicating an award to Dr. Dre after a night of speeches and performances by Black women underscoring safety and empowerment — to make it wholly convincing.
