That will be tonight on the televised special. I think 9:00pm EST if I'm remembering correctly.
I had to research that surround sound one because I'd never heard of it and got this:
The Grammy Award for "Best Surround Sound Album" was first awarded in 2005, as the first category in a new "Surround Sound" field. This field currently (2013) holds the Best Surround Sound Album award as its sole category.
It is one of a few categories which are open to both classical and non-classical
recordings, new or re-issued. To qualify for this category, the recording must be in
surround quality (with a minimum of four channels). The recordings must be
commercially available on either DVD Audio, DVD Video, Blu-ray, SACD or surround download. The award goes to the surround engineer(s), the surround mastering engineer
(s) (if any) and the surround sound producer(s) (if any). Performing artists do not receive
the award, except if they are also the surround (mastering) engineer or the surround
sound producer.
IDK if that will actually include Bey. Prob won't much like the editing win for Countdown at the VMAs and the Emmy win for the Superbowl performance.
