Grammy nominations revealed for 2023 season
November 18, 2022
On Tuesday morning, the annual Grammy award nominations were unveiled for the 2023 season. The Grammys have celebrated the best music releases for the past 65 years. The ceremony wil be held in Los Angeles on Feb. 5, 2023.
The awards include 91 categories with some of the biggest names in the industry competing against each other for their chance at recognition and an honorary title of “Grammy award-singer musician.” Some of the most contentious and popular categories this year include Best Music Video, Best Pop Solo Performance, Best Pop Vocal Album, Record of the Year and Album of the Year.
Beyonce has come out on top with the most nominations, (9) which tied the star with her husband Jay-Z for the performer with the most nominations in Grammy history. Kendrick Lamar (8) and Adele (7) were also nominated for multiple awards, following closely behind the star couple.
The Grammy’s are known for their upsetting nomination list after many years of disappointment from fans and critics who believe some of the world’s most talented stars were “snubbed” or “robbed”. Some of these upsets include Taylor Swift for multiple years and The Weeknd, who has publicly shamed the ceremony for their failure at recognizing his albums each year.
