Grammy Award For Best Latin Pop Album
The Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album is an award presented at the Grammy Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally called the Gramophone Awards, to recording artists for releasing albums in the Latin pop genre. Honors in several categories are presented at the ceremony annually by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States to "honor artistic achievement, technical proficiency and overall excellence in the recording industry, without regard to album sales or chart position". Throughout its history, this award has had minor name changes: "Best Latin Pop Performance" (1984—1991, 1995–2000), "Best Latin Pop or Urban Album" (1992—1994, 2021) and "Best Latin Pop Album" since 2022.
