Santos' album "Formula, Vol. 2," which features collaborations with Carlos Santana, Nicki Minaj, Drake and Marc Anthony, earned the bachatero 21 nominations. 

"I had the great privilege of recording with a man I admire so much. More than an artist that I admire, he is like a brother to me. Thank you, Marc," Santos said as Marc Anthony blew him a kiss from the seats.

Enrique Iglesias, who followed closely with 19 nominations, clinched nine awards, including Latin pop album of the year.
