(Las Vegas, NV) -- It was a big night for Calle 13 at the Latin Grammy awards last night in Las Vegas. The Puerto Rican hip-hop duo picked up five awards, including the Album of the Year for "Los de Atras Vienen Conmigo." Calle 13 also chalked up wins in the categories of urban album, alternative song, short video for "La Perla" and Record of the Year in a collaboration with Mexican rockers Cafe Tacuba. The late Argentine folk singer Sosa, who died last month, won a posthumous Latin Grammy for her album "Cantora 1," which also picked up an award for best recording package. Mexican singer Alexander Acha won the award as Best New Artist.<
