Can't Hold Us, another of their well-known hits, made them the only musical duet in history to have both of their debut songs reach the top of the pop charts. Four Grammy Awards for Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Album were won by them in 2014. They were also nominated for Album of the Year for The Heist, Song of the Year for Same Love, and Best Music Video for Can't Hold Us.
