Beyoncé Sets New Grammy Record, Surpassing Jay-Z

Beyoncé has become the most-nominated artist in Grammy history, earning 99 nominations and surpassing her husband Jay-Z.


As Beyoncé surpasses Jay-Z in Grammy nominations, a closer look reveals a competitive and diverse nomination landscape for the upcoming ceremony. The Recording Academy aims to make strides toward inclusivity.

Beyoncé's historic achievement of becoming the most-nominated artist at the Grammy Awards is a significant milestone not only for her career but also for the music industry overall. The latest nominations see her leading with 11 nods, including best album and song of the year for her latest work, Cowboy Carter. Previously tied with Jay-Z at 88 nominations each, she pulled ahead due to this latest recognition. Beyoncé holds the record for the most Grammy wins as a solo artist, totaling 32, but has yet to secure the coveted album of the year award.

This year's nominations have created a competitive race, particularly in the album of the year category where her main challengers include Taylor Swift and newcomers like Sabrina Carpenter. Swift's album, The Tortured Poets Department, has garnered significant attention and marks her seventh nomination in this category.

The Grammys have once again showcased their spectrum of nominees, from pop to rock, including former Outkast member André 3000 and even 100-year-old former president Jimmy Carter, recognized for best audiobook. The ongoing debate about representation and recognition within the awards is significant, especially amidst criticisms of the Recording Academy's past selections, prompting efforts to diversify the voting body with new members.

Voters, numbering 13,000, will face the task of analyzing over 20,000 submitted entries before January's final voting process. As the ceremony approaches, discussions surrounding inclusivity and representation in music remain pertinent within the industry. The 2025 Grammy Awards ceremony will take place on February 2, 2025, in Los Angeles.
