2024 Grammys Nominations Full List: SZA Leads With 9 Noms, Phoebe Bridgers Follows With 7:

The full list of nominations for the 67th annual Grammy Awards is out, with SZA as the leading nominee, with nine. Other key nominees include Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Boygenius, Miley Cyrus, Jon Batiste, Victoria Monét and Billie Eilish, all of whom will be competing against SZA for record of the year.

In the album of the year category, the eight contenders include six holdovers from the record of the year category — SZA, Swift, Rodrigo, Boygenius, Cyrus and Batiste — plus albums by Lana Del Rey and Janelle Monae.

After SZA’s leading nine nominations, three music figures are tied with seven nominations apiece: Monét, Phoebe Bridgers (six of those for her work with Boygenius, one for a collaboration with SZA) and mixing engineer Serban Ghenea. Then eight musicians are tied for having six nominations each: producer Jack Antonoff, Batiste, Boygenius, Brandy Clark, Cyrus, Eilish, Rodrigo and Swift.

It’s clear that it’s a woman’s world in the music universe right now, with Batiste being the only male performer to get six nominations or more, even as nine female performers did the same. The imbalance in the stats doesn’t end there: In the top three general-field categories, out of 24 nominations, only three went to a recording from a male artist… again, those three all being for Batiste, who might as well be the Last Man on Earth. Step up, men?

A select set of nominations was announced by Recording Academy chief Harvey Mason Jr. and celebrity guests in a livestream rollout. The awards ceremony will take place Feb. 4. 2024 and be broadcast live on CBS.

Swift has the potential to become the all-time leader for album of the year wins if “Midnights” should prevail in that category in February. It would be her fourth win; currently she is tied with Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon, with each of the having three album wins. She did already set a dirrent record with the newly announced nominations: Swift became the first person ever to be nominated for song of the year seven times.

“Barbie” had as big a look with the Grammys as it’s likely to have with the Oscars, with 12 nominations for the music of the film — 11 for the soundtrack album or its songs and one additional one for the Mark Ronson/Andrew Wyatt instrumental score. Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” landed five nominations all by itself, appearing in two top marquee categories, record of the year and song of the year, as well as pop solo performance, music video and song written for visual media. Dua Lipa’s “Dance the Night” also got a top nomination, for song of the year. The category of songs written for visual media barely left room for anything else: four of five songs there are from “Barbie,” including the aforementioned Eilish and Lipa tracks, plus “Barbie World” and “I’m Just Ken.”

The blockbusters that spent the most time atop the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 charts this year, Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time” album and “Last Night” single, did not get as much love from the Grammys as from consumers. Wallen himself was shut out, with the lone nomination associated for his work going to the three writers who penned “Last Night,” for best country song.

The biggest surprise in the nominations was the seven for Victoria Monét, something no forecasters saw coming. For a full accounting of this year’s snubs and surprises, read here. Grammy chief Harvey Mason Jr. shared his thoughts about the 2024 nominations here.
