Rihanna to perform at 60th Grammy Awards

Rihanna will perform alongside DJ Khaled and Bryson Tiller on music’s biggest night. An eight-time GRAMMY winner, Rihanna is currently nominated for Best Rap/Sung Performance for “LOYALTY” with Kendrick Lamar. The original video for “Wild Thoughts” was filmed in South Florida, and DJ Khaled — a former DJ for Miami’s WEDR 99 Jamz — is considered one of the music industry’s most prominent personalities. 

The 60th Grammy Awards is this Sunday night, Jan. 28th, and while speculation is rife on who will take home the reggae Grammy, the Caribbean will be represented on the stage by Bajan star Rihanna.

The singer turned actress and entrepreneur, who has made History again, this time notching her 50th top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, has been added to the A-list group of performers for the awards.

Those up for the Reggae Grammy’s are Chronixx for ‘Chronology; Common Kings for ‘Lost In Paradise;’ J Boog for ‘Wash House Ting;’ Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley for ‘Stony Hill;’ and Morgan Heritage for ‘ Avrakedabra.’

Previously announced GRAMMY performers will also include Brothers Osborne, Alessia Cara, CardiB, Eric Church, Miley Cyrus, Childish Gambino, Daddy Yankee, Luis Fonsi, Elton John, Kesha, Khalid, Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar, Little Big Town, Logic, Patti LuPone, Bruno Mars, Maren Morris, Pink, Ben Platt, Sam Smith, SZA and U2.
