On Friday morning, the 2025 Grammy Award nominees were announced.
With eleven Grammy nominations, Beyoncé set a new record. Kendrick Lamar, Charli XCX, and Billie Eilish each received seven nominations. Beyoncé has received more Grammy nominations than any other artist in her career (99), yet she has yet to win album of the year, the top honour from the Recording Academy.
