Beyonce won the Album of the Year Grammy on Sunday, with her album, “Cowboy Carter,” which is her first ever Album of the year grammy award.

The 43-year-old music icon bested stiff competition including Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish to claim the night’s most prestigious trophy.

It was a moment of vindication for Beyonce, the Recording Academy’s most nominated and decorated artist ever — who for more than a decade has been routinely snubbed for top Grammys.

“It’s been many, many years,” she said while accepting the prize, which she dedicated to Linda Martell, a pioneering Black woman in country who performed on the album.

“I hope we just keep pushing forward, opening doors,” Beyonce added.

It was the fifth time one of her albums had been nominated for the top prize, previously losing the award to Swift, Beck, Adele and Harry Styles.

Beyonce entered the night with the most chances at Grammys gold, having garnered 11 nominations, including in the major fields along with pop, country, Americana and melodic rap performance.

She ultimately took home three awards – Album of the Year, best country album and best country duo/group performance with Miley Cyrus.
