Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance

Der Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance, auf Deutsch etwa „Grammy-Award für die beste R&B-Darbietung“, ist ein Musikpreis, der bei den jährlich stattfindenden Grammy Awards verliehen wurde. Ausgezeichnet werden Darbietungen aus dem Musikbereich Rhythm and Blues (R&B). Der Preis wurde ursprünglich 1959 eingeführt, danach jedoch nur bis 1968 vergeben. Seit 2012 existiert der Preis erneut als Zusammenfassung der ursprünglichen Kategorien Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance, Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal und Grammy Award for Best Urban/Alternative Performance.
