The Recording Academy dropped the nominations on November 3, spanning over 90 categories. Close behind Beyoncé in nomination numbers are Kendrick Lamar, Charli XCX, and Post Malone.

The Bey Hive has been buzzing since the news dropped. After a whirlwind year, the Texas-born superstar continues to shake up the music industry.
Beyonce’s nods relate to several music moments created in 2024. “Cowboy Carter“ is nominated for Album and Country Album of the Year. “Texas Hold’ Em,“ one of the most popular tracks from Beyonce’s country album, is nominated for Record, Song, and Country Song of the Year.
After what many Beyonce fans considered a snub by the Country Music Awards, all eyes will be on the Grammys to see if the former “Destiny’s Child“ singer receives recognition for the country genre. Further, if Beyoncé wins Album of the Year, she will be the first Black woman in the 21st century and the 4th in history to take home this accolade. Natalie Cole, Lauryn Hill, and Whitney Houston won previously.
Women dominate the 2025 Grammy nominations.
Beyoncé is just one of many women up for Grammys next year, marking the powerful influence women continue to have in music and entertainment. Women are leading nominations in major categories, including Album of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, Best Rap Performance, Artist of the Year, and Record of the Year.
Doechii is another Black woman making waves this Grammy season with four nominations. Other Black women nominated in rap categories include GloRilla, Cardi B, JT, Latto, and Rapsody.
In R&B, we’re watching several Black “it girls“ who scored nods this year. They include SZA, Coco Jones, TEMS, Kehlani, Jhené Aiko, and Muni Long.
As always, we’re rooting for everybody Black. We will continue celebrating those culture-defining artists who continue to push boundaries and change the game.
Check out the full list of nominees.
