Every Grammys Best Latin Urban Album winner

2 ceremonies, 2008–2009. 2 different winners.

Best Latin Urban Album was first awarded in 2008, so it does not run the full 2000–2025 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.

One band per year, because no winner has gone back-to-back in the years on record. Colored by label; scroll sideways for the full run.
