Welcome to Beyonc茅 country.

When it comes to the 2025 Grammy Award nominations, 91裸聊视频淐owboy Carter91裸聊视频� rules the nation. She leads the nods with 11, bringing her career total to 99 nominations. That makes her the most nominated artist in Grammy history.

91裸聊视频淐owboy Carter91裸聊视频� is up for album and country album of the year, and 91裸聊视频淭exas Hold 91裸聊视频橢m91裸聊视频� is nominated for record, song and country song of the year. She also received nominations in a wide swath of genres, including pop, country, Americana and melodic rap performance categories.

This is her first time receiving nominations in the country and Americana categories. Previously, she and her husband Jay-Z were tied for most career nominations, at 88.

If Beyonc茅 wins the album of the year, she91裸聊视频檒l become the first Black woman to do so in the 21st century. Lauryn Hill last won in 1999 for 91裸聊视频淭he Miseducation of Lauryn Hill,91裸聊视频� joining Natalie Cole and Whitney Houston as the only Black women to take home the Grammys91裸聊视频� top prize.

He has two simultaneous entries in the latter category, a career first: Future & Metro Boomin featuring Lamar, 91裸聊视频淟ike That91裸聊视频� is up for best rap performance and best rap song.

This is his third time receiving two simultaneous nominations for best rap song.

Taylor Swift and first-time nominees Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan boast of six nominations each.

Last year, women artists dominated the major categories. This year, that continues somewhat, but the main trend seems to be a variance of genre. In the album of the year category, alongside 91裸聊视频淐owboy Carter91裸聊视频� is Andr茅 300091裸聊视频檚 new age, alt-jazz 91裸聊视频淣ew Blue Sun91裸聊视频� and multi-instrumentalist Jacob Collier91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淒jesse Vol. 4.91裸聊视频� Rising pop stars Carpenter and Roan round it out, with 91裸聊视频淪hort n91裸聊视频� Sweet91裸聊视频� and 91裸聊视频淭he Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess91裸聊视频� respectively, as well as Swift91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淭he Tortured Poets Department,91裸聊视频� Eilish91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淗it Me Hard and Soft,91裸聊视频� and Charli XCX91裸聊视频檚 rave-ready 91裸聊视频淏RAT.91裸聊视频�

Eilish is the only artist to have her first three albums become nominated for album of the year.

Last year, Swift won album of the year for 91裸聊视频淢idnights,91裸聊视频� breaking the record for most wins in the category with four. This year, she becomes the first ever woman to seven career nominations in the category.

91裸聊视频淭he breadth and the variety of genres represented in the general field feels new and really exciting,91裸聊视频� says the Recording Academy CEO and President Harvey Mason jr. He credits an active and evolving voting body for its success. 91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檝e been very intentional in how we looked at and tried to rebalance our membership. So not just gender or people of color, different racial makeup, but also genre equity and trying to make sure that all different types of music in different regions and different locations are being represented in every way possible.91裸聊视频�

Only recordings commercially released in the U.S. between Sept. 16, 2023 through Aug. 30, 2024 were eligible for nominations. The final round of Grammy voting, which determines its winners, will take place Dec. 12 through January 3.

In the best new artist category, Carpenter and Roan will go head-to-head, alongside Benson Boone, Doechii, Khruangbin, RAYE, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims.

In the song of the year category, Beyonc茅 is joined by Eilish with 91裸聊视频淏irds of a Feather,91裸聊视频� Swift and Post Malone with 91裸聊视频淔ortnight,91裸聊视频� Roan91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淕ood Luck, Babe!91裸聊视频�, Carpenter91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淧lease Please Please,91裸聊视频� Lamar91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淣ot Like Us,91裸聊视频� Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars91裸聊视频� 91裸聊视频淒ie With A Smile,91裸聊视频� and Shaboozey91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淎 Bar Song (Tipsy).91裸聊视频�

Shaboozey is also a first-time nominee. His 91裸聊视频淎 Bar Song (Tipsy)91裸聊视频� is the biggest song of the year, having spent more weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 than any other 91裸聊视频� it is so popular, a remix of the track is also up for remixed recording.

Elsewhere, Shaboozey is nominated in the melodic rap performance category for his feature on Beyonc茅91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淪PAGHETTII.91裸聊视频� Linda Martell, the first commercially-successful Black woman musician in country, is also featured on the song, delivering the 83-year-old artist her first Grammy nomination.

For record of the year, 91裸聊视频淭exas Hold 91裸聊视频橢m91裸聊视频� will compete against Swift and Post Malone91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淔ortnight,91裸聊视频� Eilish91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淏irds of a Father,91裸聊视频� Lamar91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淣ot Like Us,91裸聊视频� Roan91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淕ood Luck, Babe!91裸聊视频�, Carpenter91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淓spresso,91裸聊视频� Charli XCX91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频�360,91裸聊视频� and the Beatles last new song, the AI-assisted 91裸聊视频淣ow and Then.91裸聊视频�

91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檙e trying to make sure we91裸聊视频檙e keeping up with how music creators and our community are using technology. And in this case, AI enhanced the record and allowed it to be eligible in the categories that it was eligible in,91裸聊视频� Mason jr explains.

So, what91裸聊视频檚 missing? Like last year, there91裸聊视频檚 a huge dearth of Latin music 91裸聊视频� the fastest growing streaming genre in the United States 91裸聊视频� across the board, and no representation in the major categories. There are also only four entries in the best M煤sica Mexicana album category, despite it also being one of the fastest growing genres.

And K-pop, too, seems to be absent. There are no nominations for the BTS members who91裸聊视频檝e released solo material this year: RM91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淩ight Place, Wrong Person,91裸聊视频� J-Hope91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淗ope on the Street, Vol. 1,91裸聊视频� and Jimin91裸聊视频檚 91裸聊视频淢use.91裸聊视频� As a boy band, BTS has received five nominations across their career.

91裸聊视频淚 definitely see room for improvement across many genres and we are continuing to invite people to be a part of the academy,91裸聊视频� Mason jr. says. 91裸聊视频淲ithout the right representation we don91裸聊视频檛 get the right results. When I say right, I mean reflective and representative of what91裸聊视频檚 happening in music today. So, the work continues.91裸聊视频�

The 2025 Grammy Awards will air Feb. 2 live on CBS and Paramount+ from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
