67th Grammy Nominations: Beyoncé Leads with 11, Now Most-Nominated Artist in History

Nominations for the 67th annual Grammy Awards have been announced with Beyoncé in a familiar place, leading the field with 11 total, including Album of the Year and Country Album for Cowboy Carter as well a Song of the Year and Record of the Year nods for “Texas Hold ‘Em.”

While Beyoncé holds the record for the most Grammys by a woman in music history, the Album of the Year award has eluded her four times, with Taylor Swift taking the award two of those times and the duo will battle it out once again as Swift, a four-time Album of the Year winner (a Grammy record, including just last year with Midnights), is nominated in the top category once again, with The Tortured Poets Department. To date, of Beyoncé’s 32 wins only one has been in the general field: 2010’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It”) for Song of the Year.

Beyoncé also made history today by becoming the most-nominated artist of all time at the Grammy Awards, overtaking her husband and collaborator Jay-Z. She picked up her 99th nomination today with the wide range earned from Cowboy Carter across the general, pop, country, rap and Americana fields.

Kendrick Lamar was one of four artists to rack up seven nominations, largely from his Drake diss track “Not Like Us,” alongside Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, and Post Malone. Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and Chappell Roan each earned six nominations.

Roan, the breakout artist of the year, earned a Best New Artist nomination plus Album of the Year and Pop Album nods for Chappell Roan The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess but none of the album’s songs were eligible (due to timing of the album’s release and the lack of a single). Instead, it was the standalone single “Good Luck, Babe!” that got her three mentions: Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Pop Solo Performance.

British star Raye picked up several nominations, including Songwriter of the Year and Best New Artist. In the latter category she’ll go up against some major current chart champions like Benson Boone, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims.

Last year, the big four awards were presented to Taylor Swift for Album of the Year (Midnights), Miley Cyrus for Record of the Year (“Flowers”), “What Was I Made For?” [From “Barbie”] written by Billie Eilish O’Connell and Finneas O’Connell for Song of the Year and Victoria Monét as Best New Artist.

Presenters Gayle King, Hayley Williams, Billie Joe Armstrong, Kylie Minogue and Victoria Monet announced the nominees alongside Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr.

Final Round Voting will take place from December 12, 2024 to January 3, 2025. The Recording Academy’s Voting Members, composed of music creators, including artists, producers, songwriters, and engineers determine the Grammy winners across all categories revealed on Grammy night. This thorough process underscores the integrity of the Grammy Awards as music’s only industry-recognized, peer-voted honor.

This year, the Recording Academy, the organization behind the GRAMMY Awards, introduced several key updates to the annual GRAMMY Awards process, including adjustments to eligibility criteria and Category renaming, which will all go into effect immediately at the 2025 GRAMMYs.

Included in these new additions will be the debut of the Harry Belafonte Best Song For Social Change Award, which was recently renamed and recategorized in honor of the late entertainment industry icon and social justice champion Harry Belafonte.

All these changes are designed to enhance the integrity and inclusivity of the GRAMMY Awards and reflect the Recording Academy’s commitment to supporting and progressing the evolving music industry.

The 67th Grammy Awards, will take place live at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 2, 2025, broadcasting live on the CBS Television Network and streaming live and on demand on Paramount+.
