The nominations for the 67th annual Grammy Awards are out, with Beyoncé leading the way, earning 11 nominations.
She has now become the most nominated artist of all time, with a total of 99 nominations throughout her career. The Beatles, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan, Charli XCX, Kendrick Lamar, Sabrina Carpenter and Taylor Swift are competing against her for Record of the Year.
The official Grammys YouTube hosted a livestream today (November 8) for the announcement which you can watch below, with the winners set to be announced at the 68th Grammy Awards ceremony on February 2, 2025 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California.
Both Roan and Carpenter have been nominated for best new artist, meaning they are up in all four general categories open to recording artists across genres. If either artist won that category as well as record, song and album of the year – they’d become the first to do that since Eilish’s landmark sweep in 2020.
It follows last years dominance from women in music, and similarly this year’s nominations have so far seen female artists claiming six out of the eight nominations for both album of the year and record of the year.
Nominees are still being announced so check back here for updates.
