Beyoncé made history Sunday night when she won Best Country Album at the Grammys for “Cowboy Carter,” becoming the first Black singer to win the award.

It marked the 34th Grammy award of the singer’s career. She is also the most-nominated artist in the show’s history, after notching 11 more nominations this year for a total of 99.

“Cowboy Carter” is nominated for Album of the Year as well. “Texas Hold ‘Em,” one of the album’s hits, is nominated for Record and Song of the Year.

It was the singer’s second win of the night after she took home the Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “II Most Wanted” with Miley Cyrus.

She became the first Black woman to win a country-related Grammy since The Pointer Sisters won for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group for the song “Fairytale” in 1974.
