Today (November 10), the 2024 Grammy Awards nominee nomination list was revealed. Although Taylor Swift could be on course to make history at next year’s ceremony, a few other musicians are setting records now. For example, SZA is leading the pack with a total of nine nominations, which is a show of force by R&B. Fellow R&B vocalist Victoria Monét, Phoebe Bridgers, and Serban Ghenea are in a three-way tie for second most nominated with seven each.
But Victoria Monét’s two-year-old daughter, Hazel, has adorably stolen the spotlight. Both are on the list of first-time nominees. Now, Hazel Monét holds the crown after earning a nomination in the Best Traditional R&B Performance category. Hazel’s voice appears on her mother’s song “Hollywood,” featuring Earth, Wind, And Fire. This makes her the youngest Grammy Award nominee in the show’s history.
It was a shock when LeAnn Rimes was nominated and won her first two Grammys at 14. Boy, times have changed. In 2021, Blue Ivy Carter, the talented daughter of music titans Beyonce and Jay-Z, was considered to hold the title of youngest Grammy nominee ever. At eight years old, the budding singer appeared on her mother’s song, “Brown Skin Girl” with Wizkid and Saint Jhn. When she turned nine, she was formally nominated for the track.
During an appearance on AMP Radio in September, Victoria Monét spoke about incorporating her toddler’s voice on the track. Watch the full interview below.
The 2024 Grammy Awards nominations have been announced, and as usual, there are plenty of surprises and snubs to discuss. Although the Recording Academy added some new categories this year to accommodate the emergence of Afropop as a global force, it looks like another growing genre was left out in the cold. Meanwhile, as country music experiences a resurgence, some of the genre’s most dominant stars missed out on the biggest looks of the year. And even though the Grammys have taken huge steps in addressing the awards’ shortcomings in rap and R&B, they appear to have overlooked some of the year’s most talked-about projects and artists.
Here are the biggest surprises and snubs of the 2024 Grammy nominations.
PinkPantheress Wasn’t Nominated Despite A Breakout Year
“Boy’s A Liar” was one of the biggest hits of the past year, sticking its index finger directly on the pulse of the zeitgeist. From predicting the resurgence of the 2-step/garage sounds that shaped huge hits like “Seven” and “Super Shy” (more on them later) to introducing the non-rap-fan population to the pop culture juggernaut that is Ice Spice, “Boy’s A Liar” was an inescapable phenomenon and the fact that PinkPantheress couldn’t get a record, song, or Best New Artist nomination speaks to both how competitive the field was this year and how much further the Academy has to go in bridging that pesky generation gap.
Barbie Took Over
Here’s how dominant the Barbie soundtrack was this year: the Best Song Written For Visual Media category only features ONE non-Barbie song (Rihanna’s “Lift Me Up” from Wakanda Forever) and a Barbie song is nominated in both eligible Big Four categories, as well as for Rap Song of the Year. The doll who does it all is practically guaranteed at least one win at this year’s awards — even at the cost of me and my editor’s bet about “Peaches” from Mario and “Dear Alien” from Asteroid City. And Across The Spider-Verse deserved more.
Foo Fighters Weren’t Nominated For Album Of The Year
In somewhat of a break from Grammy tradition, Foo Fighters’ But Here We Are wasn’t nominated for Album Of The Year, despite the recent death of drummer Taylor Hawkins and the album’s emotional material. It’s grim to think about, but in past years, you could reliably expect a consolation posthumous nomination. It’s downright disheartening to think that this time the Grammys ignored the macabre tradition.
Country Dominated The Charts But Got (Mostly) Shut Out Of The Big Four
The general awards are always controversial but there’s an argument to be made here. While the Big Four are almost never actually tied to commercial achievement — hello Esperanza Spalding — Zach Bryan, Luke Combs, and Morgan Wallen all utterly dominated the charts this year, yet it appears that if this was taken into consideration, it wasn’t enough to lift them out of their respective niches. Perhaps the ideological fractures in that fanbase had an effect. At least there is Jelly Roll.
Where Are The K-Pop Stars?
During the eligibility period this past year, a bunch of songs from K-pop acts took over the American charts. Fifty Fifty’s “Cupid” has been impossible to get away from (I may or may not have tried), New Jeans’ “Super Shy” became a mall P.A. mainstay, and Jung Kook’s solo hit “Seven” peaked at No. 1 on the Hot 100. What makes K-pop’s absence from this year’s nominations stranger is how ubiquitous K-pop has been at the Grammys for the past handful of years, with BTS performing “Dynamite” in 2021 and “Yet To Come” earning a history-making nomination in 2022.
Reggaeton And Latin Trap Were Locked Out Of The Big Awards, Too
Take everything said about K-pop above and translate it into Spanish. Sure, there’s a Latin Grammys, but that smells suspiciously of “separate but equal,” you know? You’d think Peso Pluma or Karol G would warrant a nod, even if Grammys voters could hardly be expected to tunnel all the way down to discover newer breakout artists like Myke Towers or Rauw Alejandro. Again, with the Latin Grammys coming just a few weeks after the “standard issue” ceremony, perhaps interested voters were just too distracted to manage both sets of ballots. Still, it’s a black mark for sure.
Gunna Didn’t Make The Cut For Best Rap Album
Yes, awards nominations are subjective, but there’s a general consensus among rap fans online — corroborated by chart performance — that Gunna had one of the standout albums of the year, if not the only one with any real staying power. Yet, it seems Grammy voters went for the lowest-hanging fruit: Killer Mike and Nas are obvious “prestige” picks for the Gen X hip-hop heads that mostly make up the part of the Academy most well-versed in rap (heyo), while Drake and Travis Scott are brand-friendly pop mainstays. However, Utopia only spent four weeks on the Billboard 200 — a massive drop off from his last two projects, and reception was largely lukewarm. Metro Boomin is a nice addition, but again, for the wrong album (Across The Spider-Verse getting snubbed is going to give me heartburn for the rest of the year).

On Friday morning, November 10, The Recording Academy announced the full nomination field for the 2024 Grammys, which will occur on February 4, 2024 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and broadcast live on CBS. The eligibility window was set for October 1, 2022 to September 15, 2023. So, while Dua Lipa’s freshly released single “Houdini” will have to wait, Lipa is still nominated for Song Of The Year and Best Song Written For Visual Media for “Dance The Night” from the Barbie movie. But two nominations is far from the most earned by a single artist. SZA has the most nominations for the 2024 Grammys with nine.
SZA shook the world when she dropped SOSon December 9, 2022. Her sophomore album spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, but she shared that debuting on Billboard‘s Hot 100 Songwriters chart meant “so f*cking much to me.” SOS singles “Kill Bill” and “Snooze” peaked at Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, on the Billboard Hot 100.
At the 2024 Grammys, SZA is nominated for Record Of The Year (“Kill Bill”), Album Of The Year (SOS), Song Of The Year (“Kill Bill”), Best Pop Duo/Group Performance (“Ghost In The Machine” Feat. Phoebe Bridgers), Best R&B Performance (“Kill Bill”), Best Traditional R&B Performance (“Love Language”), Best Progressive R&B Album (SOS), Best R&B Song (“Snooze”), and Best Melodic Rap Performance (“Low”).
At the 2022 Grammys, SZA won her first and only Grammy as the featured artist on Doja Cat’s “Kiss Me More” in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category. So, simple math: winning any of her nine nominations at the 2024 Grammys would mark her first Grammy as a solo artist.
After a somewhat anxiety-inducing live broadcast, the 2024 Grammy Awards nomination list is out. Singers like Taylor Swift, SZA, and rapper Drake were sure to make the cut, given their recording-breaking run on the music charts this year. Not everyone was as clear-cut shut-ins. Just as each year brings about notable snubs (hi, PinkPantheress), it is important to acknowledge those artists who bet out the right for their respective spots, especially first-time nominees.
Who are the first-time nominees for the 2024 Grammys?
Victoria Monét and her adorable daughter Hazel earned their first nominations today as performers (November 10). Victoria previously received three nominations in her supporting role on thank u, next by Ariana Grande and “Do It” by Chloe x Halle. For the 2024 Grammy Awards, as a lead artist, Victoria is positioned seven awards including for Best New Artist, Record Of The Year (“On My Mama”), Best R&B Album (Jaguar II), Best R&B Performance (“How Does It Make You Feel”), Best Traditional R&B Performance (“Hollywood” featuring Earth, Wind, And Fire and Hazel Monét), Best R&B Song (“On My Mama”), and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical (Jaguar II).
Hazel dethrones Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy, becoming the youngest Grammy nomination in the ceremony’s history.
Other first-time nominees include Ryan Gosling (Best Song Written For Visual Media), Ayra Starr (Best African Music Performance), Coco Jones (Best New Artist, Best R&B Song, Best R&B Album, Best R&B Performance, and Best Traditional R&B Performance), Coi Leray (Best Rap Performance and Best Pop Dance Recording), Peso Pluma (Best Música Mexicana Album), Noah Kahan (Best New Artist), The War And Treaty (Best New Artist), Ice Spice (Best New Artist, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Song Written For Visual Media), Gracie Abrams (Best New Artist), Jelly Roll (Best New Artist), and Caroline Rose (Best Recording Package, The Art Of Forgetting).
Although Summer Walker was nominated in the Album of The Year category due to her contribution to Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (“Purple Hearts”), she’s earned her first as a lead artist in Best R&B Album (Clear 2: Soft Life EP). Halle’s single “Angel” earned her a nomination in the Best R&B Song category, marking it a first for her as a solo act.
The 2024 GRAMMYs are set to go down on Sunday, February 4, beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California. The ceremony will be broadcast live on CBS and Paramount+. Find more information here.

It should not be a shock to you that Ryan Gosling is a talented musician, or that the man has a Halloween-themed band called Dead Mans Bones where he sings about death alongside a choir of schoolchildren. The fact that that wasn’t nominated for a Grammy is shocking, but they seem to be making up for it this year by finally recognizing Gosling’s contribution to the music industry and giving him a Grammy nom. He’s come so far.
“I’m Just Ken” from Warner Bros smash hit Barbiereceived a nomination for Best Song Written For Visual Media, along with fellow Barbie nominee Billie Eilish, who also received a nom for “What Was I Made For,” a song that will make you cry no matter where you are or what you are doing. Also nominated are Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice, and Aqua for “Barbie World” and Dua Lipa for “Dance The Night” so Barbie has some stiff competition with herself.
Unfortunately, Gosling did not receive recognition for his cover of “Push” by Matchbox Twenty but there’s always the Kid’s Choice Awards for that one.
Barbie’s director Greta Gerwig told Rolling Stone earlier this year that the track came together organically. “He has a beautiful voice, and he’s a beautiful dancer. We kind of got there organically. I think if I had said, ‘I want you to sing and dance in this movie,’ he would not have necessarily done that for me. But it was kind of that thing of boiling a lobster. I think by the time he was singing and dancing, he didn’t even totally know how we had gotten there. [Laughs] But he’s so fabulous at it.” Pete Davidson was also fabulous at it.
Until the Grammys hold the ceremony where the winners are announced, feel free to watch this video every day.
The 50th anniversary of hip-hop has fans and musicians on high alert for glaring snubs by award ceremonies and more looking to celebrate the genre. So, today’s (November 10) 2024 Grammy Awards nomination broadcast had everyone locked in. Unfortunately, according to online communities, who are already in an uproar, the Grammys dropped the ball.
So, what are the rap Grammy nominations for 2024? Well, leading the pack with four nominations is notorious anti-Grammy rapper Drake. Behind him is Killer Mike, with three nominations, and Doja Cat, with two.

The Grammy Awards, despite some past controversies, remain the biggest night in music. While that night is still some months away, today, we learn which artists and works will compete for the most prestigious awards in music.
Works published between October 1, 2022, and September 15, 2023, are eligible to for nomination, while rule changes mean that fewer artists/works will be nominated for the “Big Four” awards. There will, however, be new categories for emerging genres.
Another decision sure to bring controversy is that AI songs have been declared eligible — but only for songwriting awards. Now, that doesn’t mean that one will be nominated, although one was submitted. But stranger things have happened (like Beyoncé being snubbed for Album of the Year — twice!).
Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason, Jr. made a statement to clear up confusion about AI after a public backlash from fans online, saying, “I take this [AI] stuff very seriously. It’s all complicated, and it’s moving really, really quickly. I’m sure things are going to continue to have to evolve and change. But please, please, do not be confused. The Academy is here to support and advocate and protect and represent human artists, and human creators, period.”
To find out who wins, you’ll have to wait until February 4, 2024, when the ceremony airs. For now, though:

Music’s biggest night, the Grammys, is nearly here. Each year, entertainer’s biggest names gather to bask in their creative greatest. While every ceremony offers its own twists and turns, the 2024 Grammys will undoubtedly be the most interesting, given the expansion of who’s eligible (hello, AI creators) and award categories. So, how many Grammy Award categories are there for 2024?
In total, there are 98 categories for the 2024 Grammy Awards. The most coveted, of course, is Album Of The Year, followed by Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, and Best New Artist. In June, the organization announced that in the “Big Four” categories, they’ve reduced the total nominees in the respective categories to eight from ten. Another significant change to the categories for the 2024 Grammy Awards includes the addition of three new slots — Best African Music Performance, Best Alternative Jazz Album, and Best Pop Dance Recording.

Make your predictions now, because the 2024 Grammy Awards nominations are being announced this week. Albums released from October 1, 2022, to September 15, 2023, are eligible, so fans of acts like Drake and Taylor Swift can’t help but hold their collective breath as they wait to see whether they’ll faves will secure nominations — and what awards they could be nominated for.
The announcements will be made on Friday, November 10. However, the Grammys website doesn’t have a specific time. Last year, the nominations began rolling out at around noon ET, so that’s probably a good time to look for them this year.
Earlier this year, the Recording Academy revealed a few changes to the Awards’ format, including adding new categories under the pop, jazz, and African music fields while reducing the number of nominees in the “Big Four” categories (Best New Artist, Album, Song, and Record of the Year). This was done to reduce the length of the ceremony itself as well as consolidating voting for difficult choices and dark horses.
While the Academy didn’t specifically cite the reaction to the snub of Beyoncé’s Renaissance for Album Of The Year, Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. did acknowledge it, pointing out his hope in expanding Academy membership to ensure that voting encompassed the breadth of music and not just a few elitist artists and categories.
