The highly anticipated Grammy nominations for the 2025 ceremony, set to take place on February 2nd at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, have been announced, and as no one could have predicted, Beyoncé reigns supreme with an impressive 11 nominations. This achievement brings her total career nominations to a staggering 99, with 32 Grammy wins already under her belt.
However, the race for Album of the Year promises to be a fierce one, with powerhouse contenders like Charli XCX with “Brat,” Chappell Roan with “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess,” Billie Eilish with “Hit Me Hard and Soft,” Taylor Swift with “The Tortured Poets Department,” and Sabrina Carpenter with “Short n’ Sweet” all vying for the prestigious title.
In other major categories, the Best New Artist award is up for grabs among a talented group including Carpenter, Roan, Doechii, Raye, Khruangbin, and Beyoncé collaborator Shaboozey, who took to Instagram on Friday, November 8th, to share a heartwarming video of his team celebrating the nomination.
The Recording of the Year category is just as exciting, featuring “Texas Hold ’Em,” “Espresso,” and “360” battling it out alongside “Good Luck, Babe!,” “Not Like Us,” “Birds of a Feather,” “Fortnight,” and a surprise entry – a track by The Beatles!
Representing Brazil, Anitta is nominated for Best Latin Pop Album with “Funk Generation.” She previously received a Best New Artist nomination in 2013, which ultimately went to jazz singer Samara Joy.
