Bob Dylan, Alison Krauss & Union Station, and R. Kelly were the main recipients with three awards each.[1] Following R. Kelly's federal conviction of racketeering and violations of the Mann Act in New York on September 27, 2021, The Recording Academy received major backlash for refusing to strip Kelly of his awards.[2]
