2. Chris Rock took jabs at literally everyone. "What's happening in music this year? Well, Solange hit Jay Z in the elevator. That's what happened," he joked. Later the standup comedian poked fun at former Clippers owner Donald Sterling saying, "He didn't want his girl hanging out with black basketball players. Me neither!"

3. Pharrell in the spotlight. From spending 10 minutes trying to unbutton his sweater mid-performance to announcing: "I was trying to be cool and thug, and I almost slipped and busted my ass," the "Happy" singer was definitely the most endearing artist at the show.

The rapper thanked his family and God before slamming the mic to the ground. Presenter Chadwick Boseman then had to pick the stand up and hold the mic together. "Alright, Young Money," he said, cocking his eyebrow.
