The showdown between Jay-Z and Kendrick Lamar came and went — and neither the 4:44 nor the DAMN. artist came out on top of the 2018 Grammys.

Although Lamar did win five of his seven nominated categories, it was Bruno Mars who ended the night with the most golden gramophones in hand, winning all seven of his nominated categories — including the awards for Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year.

Sadly, Jay, who earned the most nominations of any artist going into the night, went home empty-handed, but with a humble request from Lamar to run for president.

Still, others may argue that the real winners of the night were Cardi B, whose animated "Finesse" performance gave the show the lively spunk it needed, and Rihanna's powerful "Wild Thoughts" shimmy, which I will be practicing in front of the mirror for the next three days.

Here are the winners in all of the key categories.
