The Grammy Award for Best Traditional R&B Performance is an accolade presented at the Grammy Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally named the Gramophone Awards,[1] to performers of quality traditional R&B vocal performances. The award was first given in 1999; until 2003, only albums were nominated, now just singles or tracks are. 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."[2]


Between 1999 and 2002, this accolade was originally known as Best Traditional R&B Vocal Album. It was renamed in 2003, being awarded for Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance. Since 2012 the accolade has been known as Best Traditional R&B Performance.


Singer Lalah Hathaway hold the record for the most wins as a performer in this category, 3. Aretha won her first award in 2004 and a second at the 2006 ceremony, while Beyoncé won her first award in 2010 and second at the 2013 ceremony. Hathaway won her 3 Grammy's back to back in 2015 and 2016 and 2017. The American R&B soul rock group The Temptations holds the record for the most nominations, with a total of four. Raphael Saadiq and Ann Nesby hold the record for the most nominations without a win, with three each.
