Congratulations is in order!
On Tuesday, November 23, many of the big names in the music industry woke up to the good news that they were nominated for one or more 2022 Grammy Awards.
For starters, soul composer Jon Batiste led with a total of 11 nominations. But do not close behind, Justin Bieber, Cat Doja and SHE each earned eight nominations. Finally, credit must be given to newcomers Olivia Rodrigo, who could walk away with seven awards when the biggest night of music hits next year.
For the critically acclaimed Record of the Year award, it was a fierce race with Doja, Justin, Jon and Olivia taking part. Brandi Carlile, ABBA, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, Silk Sonic and Lil Nas X in the special category.
History is also made when Jay-Z became the most Grammy-nominated artist in history, breaking his relationship with Quincy Jones.
Finally, nomination day is not the day to play your favorite games. Instead, it’s all about honoring musicians of various genres who have received recognition from the Recording Academy.
