How’s this for a Friday news dump? The Recording Academy announced the nominees for the 2024 Grammys — that’s right, the top awards in music! — today, as if everybody isn’t just trying to survive their way to the weekend right now. (Oh, sorry, we forgot the Academy doesn’t acknowledge the Weeknd.) SZA leads the pack with nine nominations behind her sophomore effort, SOS. Close behind are boygenius’s Phoebe Bridgers, R&B performer Victoria Monét, and music engineer Serban Ghenea with seven nominations each. Jon Batiste, boygenius, Brandy Clark, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, and Jack Antonoff each have six nods. It’s an especially impressive haul for female artists, who make up seven of the eight nominees in Album, Record, and Song of the Year.
The nominees were revealed by a cast only the Grammys could bring together; it included St. Vincent, Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, Muni Long, Kim Petras, and 2024 MusiCares Person of the Year Jon Bon Jovi. The announcement arrives just two days after a woman sued former Recording Academy CEO Neil Portnow for rape and claimed the Academy was negligent.
The Grammys are set to take place February 4, returning to the unfortunately named Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. (But if we’re gonna have to hear about cryptocurrency, at least we won’t have to worry about AI.) Find the full list of nominees below. And for complete songwriter and producer credits, head to Grammy.com.
