The nominees for this year were announced back in November 2022 but just in case you missed them here are some of our favourite artists who are up for a prize.

The nominations for Record of the Year in the general field (that recognises the producers, sound engineers, and sound mixers as well as the performing artist) includes Sweden’s pop icons ABBA’s ‘Don’t Shut Me Down’, 28 time Grammy winner “Queen Bee” Beyoncé’s ‘Break My Soul’, the nation’s favourite soul singer Adele’s ‘Easy On Me’, the oh-so bad Doja Cat’s ‘Woman’, indie hero Steve Lacy’s ‘Bad Habit’, our favourite rapper Kendrick Lamar’s ‘The Heart Part 5’, diva Lizzo’s ‘About Damn Time’, and teen girl heartthrob Harry Style’s ‘As It Was’.

Up for awards in the Song of the Year category are the tracks by Adele, Beyoncé, Harry Styles, Steve Lacy, Lizzo, and Kendrick Lamar nominated for Record of the Year as well as the infamous DJ Khaled’s ‘God Did’ featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, John Legend & Fridayy, the singer-songwriter Taylor Swift’s short film ‘All Too Well’, and the artist that blew up TikTok Gayle’s ‘ABCDEFU’.

The albums nominated for the Album of the Year include: 30 by Adele, Voyage by ABBA, Un Verano Sin Ti by Bad Bunny, RENAISSANCE by Beyoncé, Mr Morale & The Big Stepper by Kendrick Lamar, Special by Lizzo, and Harry’s House by Harry Styles.

Among the artist nominated for best new artists is our fav cheeky indie band Wet Leg whose punk single ‘Chaise Long’ released on their eponymous debut album last year has gathered millions of streams. Brazilian Latin pop artist Anitta has also been nominated having risen to international fame over the last few years. Samara Joy, the 23-year-old American Jazz singer, is up for the award as well as having released her second album as a leading musician Linger Awhile last year. The Eurovision-famous Italian Glam rock band Måneskin who are about to drop their 3rd studio album Rush! Later this month, are among the nominees in the category too.

Fans of Drake and The Weeknd may be surprised to not see them nominated in a single category. Last year the Grammys ended its secret-committee nominations in the four main categories in the general field (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artists) following protests sparked by the 2021 Grammys when it was revealed the Weeknd’s hugely successful After Hours and single ‘Blinding Light’ did not receive a single nomination. The Weeknd and Drake continue to boycott the awards this year.

With any of our music idols – Beyoncé, Doja Cat, Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, Bad Bunny, and Lizzo, to name a few – bound to come home with one or two prizes this year there’s no way you’ll want to miss out. Grab your popcorn, a little booze, and of course your besties ready for a watch party in style. The Grammys will broadcast on CBS Television Network at 8-11:30 ET and will be available on Paramount + for fellow UK viewers.
