The Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance was awarded between 1966 and 2011 (the final year it was awarded for records issued in 2010). The award had several minor name changes:

The award was discontinued from 2012 in a major overhaul of Grammy categories. From 2012, all solo performances in the pop category (male, female, instrumentalist) were shifted to the newly formed Best Pop Solo Performance category.

A similar award for Best Vocal Performance, Male was awarded from 1959 to 1968. This was also in the pop field, but did not specify pop music.

Years reflect the year in which the Grammy Awards were presented, for works released in the previous year.
