Kendrick Lamar has won his second Emmy, securing the Creative Emmy for Outstanding Music Direction for The Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show Starring Kendrick Lamar. He and fellow music director Tony Russell received the award—one of seven for which the show was nominated. Other Creative Emmys winners included the 2024 Grammys broadcast, for choreography, and SNL 50: The Anniversary Special in several technical categories.
Beyoncé’s Netflix special did not bag any awards last night, though she won her first Emmy last month in a special category for the show’s costumes. The Creative Emmys are designed to honor those behind-the-scenes, before the main awards gala a week later.
