Music’s biggest night isn’t until February 2, but the 67th annual Grammy Awards is gearing up to be a show not to be missed. Beyoncé, who made history with her country album Cowboy Carterleads the pack with 11 nominations. She is the most nominated artist in the history of the Grammys.
Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan and Charli XCX, who all shot to fame this year, each earned their first nominations for Album of the Year. They will compete for the top prize together with Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish and Beyoncé. Andre 3000 and Jacob Collier round out the category, which might come as a surprise to some.
Carpenter and Roan also scored nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist. The pop stars are the only artists to earn nominations in the so-called ‘Big Four’ categories.
It wasn’t just singers who had breakthrough years. Country newcomer Shaboozey scored five nominations, including Best New Artist and Song of the Year for his smash hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy).”
As predicted, Kendrick Lamar’s big year continues as his Drake diss track “Not Like Us” was nominated for Song of the Year and Record of the Year. He earned seven nominations. He’s going from the Grammys to the Super Bowl as next year’s headliner.
Lamar, Charli XCX, Post Malone and Billie Eilish follow Beyoncé – with seven nominations each. Swift scored six. Check out some of the notable nominations below.
