The nominations for the 64th annual Grammy Awards are officially here! The nominees were announced on Nov. 23 at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles. This year, leading the pack with the most noms is Jon Batiste, with 11 total, along with Justin Bieber, Doja Cat, and H.E.R. – who snagged eight nominations each. Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo also join the pool of most nominated artists with seven nominations each. Some standout artists who are this year’s first-time nominees are Rodrigo, Saweetie, and Selena Gomez.
Heading into Grammy night, Rodrigo may make history if she wins all four general field categories she’s nominated for – which will make her the second woman and the second-youngest person to ever do so! Also amongst the historical Grammy nomination group is Jay-Z, whose three nominations put him at a whopping 83 total in his career – pushing him past Quincy Jones and Paul McCartney with the most ever nominations! Ahead, check out the full list of nominees for the 2022 Grammys!
