La Mafia won Best Tejano Album at the 21st annual Latin Grammy Awards for their live concert album Live In Mexico. The announcement was made during a pre-show virtual ceremony on Thursday afternoon.
This is the third Latin Grammy win for the group from Houston, Texas.

The group also has two Grammy wins for Best Mexican-American/Tejano Music Performance with Un Millon De Rosas in 1996 and again the following year in 1997 for the same category with En Tus Manos.
Other nominees for Best Tejano Album included 25th Anniversary Contigo from Jay Perez, Pelicula, Vol. 1 from Siggno, It’s Time by South TX Homies, and Pa’ La Pista Y Pa’l Pisto, Vol. 1 from El Plan.
