Grammy Nominations 2023: See The Complete List

Grammy #Grammy

Go easy on the Grammy voters who must choose between two music titans for a rematch six years in the making.

Beyoncé and Adele led the 2023 Grammy Award nominations announced on Tuesday, after triumphant returns to the industry with “Renaissance,” Queen Bey’s dance floor-ready solo release, and “30,” the British singer’s soulful post-divorce record. The former topped all other nominees with nine nods, setting a new Grammys record as the most nominated artist in history ― tied only by her husband and collaborator Jay-Z.

Both Beyoncé and Adele, who earned seven nominations, will compete for Album of the Year, reprising their 2017 showdown in the category that ultimately saw Adele’s “25” beat Beyoncé’s “Lemonade” ― despite practically everybody in the room (including Adele, mind you) agreeing that the latter was more deserving.

While Beyoncé now stands as the most decorated female artist in the history of the awards show, she has never won an Album of the Year trophy. Adele, meanwhile, has clinched that award for her past two albums, paving what could be a straightforward path to her third.

But the two superstars aren’t the only ones who’ve made musical comebacks.

“Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers,” Kendrick Lamar’s critically acclaimed follow-up to his Pulitzer Prize-winning 2017 album “DAMN,” is in the running for top awards, including Album of The Year, and will surely dominate the rap categories. Lamar followed Beyoncé as the most nominated artist at this year’s ceremony, with eight total nods.

They’ll compete for in the Album of The Year race alongside Bad Bunny, who made history with his genre-fusing and chart-dominating fourth album “Un Verano Ti,” the first all-Spanish album to receive a nomination in the category.

And never count out a contender like Harry Styles, who nabbed six nominations after reaching near cultural ubiquity this year with both music and film roles. “As It Was,” the lead single from his third album “Harry’s House,” received nods in both Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

ABBA’s “Voyage,” Lizzo’s “Special,” Brandi Carlile’s “In These Silent Days,” Coldplay’s “Music of the Spheres” and Mary J. Blige’s “Good Morning Gorgeous (Deluxe)” round out the rest of the Album of the Year nominees.

As for snubs, Taylor Swift, whose album “Red (Taylor’s Version),” the re-recording of one of her most beloved records, failed to pick up any major nods. But the 10-minute rendition of her sweeping ballad “All Too Well” was recognized in multiple categories, including Song of The Year and Best Music Video, among others.

Of course, the Grammys don’t have the best track record, leaving a trail of snubbed artists and allegations of corruption within the Recording Academy. This holds especially true in the most prestigious categories, where hip-hop and rap artists have been historically excluded.

Drake and The Weeknd, two of the most popular artists globally who released major albums this year, are once again openly boycotting the ceremony after years of frustration.

The show, despite falling ratings, continuing clashes with music tastemakers, and a slide toward industry irrelevancy, must go on, with the 65th annual ceremony set for Feb. 5 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

Check out the full list of nominees below.
