The 68th Grammy Awards, broadcast live from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, marked a year of milestones and transitions for the Recording Academy. The ceremony, hosted for the last time by Trevor Noah, saw Bad Bunny achieve a historic win for best album, while Kendrick Lamar became the most decorated rapper ever, according to the New York Times. The Grammys also bid farewell to CBS, its network home for over 50 years, with a new broadcast partnership set to begin next year with ABC, Hulu, and Disney, according to Time.
Kendrick Lamar led this year's nominations with nine nods, followed by Lady Gaga and superproducers Cirkut and Jack Antonoff with seven each, and Bad Bunny and Sabrina Carpenter with six apiece, Time reported. The awards spotlighted emerging artists and incorporated futuristic performances, showcasing the evolving landscape of popular music and its cultural impact, according to the New York Times.
February also brings a focus on alternative Valentine's Day gifts. Fox News suggests moving "beyond bouquets" and considering creative building sets like LEGO sculptures and floral bouquets. These hands-on activities promote shared experiences and result in lasting keepsakes, offering a unique and engaging alternative to traditional presents like chocolates.
Vox highlighted the February issue of "The Highlight," featuring a cover story by Adam Clark Estes exploring the potential of humanoid robots. The issue also delves into topics such as the ethics of small pet ownership and remembering the man who killed smallpox.
For those seeking literary escapes during the winter months, Time recommends several new books to read in February. Among them is "The End of Romance" by Lily Meyer, a novel about Sylvie Broder, who flees an abusive marriage and her family's history by indulging in flings.
