About this record
Best Latin Urban Album was first awarded in 2008, so it does not run the full 1959–2025 window.
It was awarded for the last time in 2009.
Two ceremonies only, after which urban records were folded into the Latin rock category.
From 2010 the Grammys awarded Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album instead.
