Duetti Celebrates the Grammys 2026

by Julia Melim February 5, 2026
written by Julia Melim

Duetti celebrated The 68th Grammy Awards that took place in Los Angeles, bringing out a crowd at the Hollywood Roosevelt. Music industry’s highest honor brought out new artists dancing to DJ sets by NOODLES & KITTYSAYWORD.

The Grammys made history this year when Bad Bunny took home Best Album of the Year as the first Spanish language album to win the honor for “Debi Tirar Más Fotos.” It is a great year for Latinos – celebrating Bad Bunny win with heart and soul, while embracing his true identity.

The song alludes to his relationship with his grandfather and his Puerto Rico heritage, meaning that we should take more pictures of those moments so we don’t miss them. It’s a bittersweet song, nostalgic of his time growing up in Puerto Rico and at the same time, not wanting to take photos to be present in the moment.
