See the full list of nominees for the Grammy Awards 2024, including Tyla, Ayra Starr and more African stars

The 2024 Grammy nominations are HERE! The 66th annual Grammy Awards are set to honour the best in music from the previous year — specifically from 1 October 2022 to 15 September 2023.

There are still a few months before Music's Biggest Night, so we advise you to take this time to familiarise yourself with the nominees across all 94 Grammy categories below. That's right: 94.

The 2024 Grammy nominations list was announced during a live stream event on 10 November, with musicians like St. Vincent, Muni Long, Kim Petras, and Jon Bon Jovi presenting the nominees.

Nomination prediction lists included fan-favourites like Taylor Swift's Midnights and SZA's SOS for Album of the Year, Miley Cyrus's “Flowers," Doja Cat's “Paint the Town Red," and Dua Lipa or Billie Eilish's Barbie soundtrack contributions for Record of the Year, Olivia Rodrigo's “Vampire” for Song of the Year, and Ice Spice, Gracie Abrams, Coco Jones, and PinkPantheress as potential Best New Artist contenders. Well, turns out those predictions were pretty right.

SZA leads the pack with a total of nine nominations total, with three musicians tied behind her with seven nominations each: Victoria Monét, Phoebe Bridgers (whose work with Boygenius is included in this count), and audio engineer Serban Ghenea. In third place, the nominees tied with six nods each are Jack Antonoff, Jon Batiste, Boygenius, Brandy Clark, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, and, of course, Taylor Swift. Notable first-time nominees this year include Tyla (1), Troye Sivan (2), Coco Jones (5), Ice Spice (4), and Ayra Starr (1).

Three new categories have been added to the 2024 Grammy Awards: Best Alternative Jazz Album, Best Pop Dance Recording, and the highly-anticipated Best African Music Performance. Last year saw new category additions like the long-awaited Songwriter Of the Year, Non-Classical and Best Song for Social Change.

The 2024 Grammy Awards will be broadcast live from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California on Sunday, February 4, 2024. Check out the full list of 2024 Grammy nominations below.
