Kendrick Lamar, whose “Not Like Us” single triumphed in two of the three prime classes on the 2025 Grammys, has voters having nonetheless additional alternatives to reward him this yr, with the potent follow-through of each a smash album (“GNX”) and single (“Luther’) poised to supply the hip-hop celebrity much more of a sweep within the 2026 awards. Lamar leads the pack of nominees for the 2026 Grammys with 9 nods, in nominations rolled out by the Recording Academy Friday.
The morning was additionally an enormous one for little monsters, with Girl Gaga’s fan base cheering on her seven nominations, topping her earlier document of six, which she scored again in 2010. Gaga ties for the second-most nominations with producers Jack Antonoff and Cirkut, who additionally discovered seven to be their fortunate quantity.
Yearly there’s a minimum of one rising artist who will get a considerably larger bonanza of nominations than anybody had prognosticated, and this yr that artist is Leon Thomas. He scored a shocking six nods, which places him in a tie with Sabrina Carpenter, Dangerous Bunny and audio enginner and mixer Serban Ghenea.
The six nominations for Dangerous Bunny, the upcoming Tremendous Bowl halftime showman, got here as excellent news for anybody who was frightened that Latin music could be shut out of the massive classes, because it typically has been, and relegated to the Latin Grammys. Dangerous Bunny was shut out of the highest three classes prior to now couple of years, however there was a recent inflow of voters with twin voting rights for each the Grammys and Latin Grammys, so any such overlooking was much less more likely to occur once more. The worldwide celebrity is up for all three of the highest classes, in reality — album, document and music of the yr.
Dangerous Bunny will not be alone in having the chance for a sweep on the prime. He’s considered one of 4 artists to be nominated within the prime three classes, the others being Lamar, Gaga and Carpenter.
There’s no chance of anybody making a run via all 4 all-genre classes, although, as a result of the most effective new artist class is crammed with performers who didn’t get a lot of a glance anyplace else. Leon Thomas is just about alone among the many eight BNA contenders in getting a number of nominations. A lot of the different freshmen put up for brand spanking new artist have that as their sole nomination, together with Alex Warren, who had one of many yr’s most ubiquitous hits with “Abnormal” however didn’t have the music itself flip up anyplace within the noms.
Followers of the “Kpop Demon Hunters” franchise have been desirous to see whether or not Grammy voters would have fun the inescapable “Golden” with a number of nominations, regardless of a notion that Academy members would possibly flip up their noses at voting for avatars. The information was principally constructive on that entrance: “Golden” landed 4 nominations — almost all that have been potential — together with a coveted nod for music of the yr, although “Golden” didn’t make it into the document of the yr sweepstakes.
A few of 2025’s largest hits are lacking from the Grammys, both via the timing of the calendar or by self-deportation. The yr’s second-biggest album is Morgan Wallen’s “I’m the Drawback,” however his camp introduced earlier within the season that he wouldn’t be submitting for the Grammys going ahead. The most important blockbuster of the yr, Taylor Swift’s “The Lifetime of a Showgirl,” got here out previous the top of the eligibility interval, leaving her with nothing to take care of this cycle.
However even with out Swift making a return run at Grammy glory this time round, there’s some immediate déjà vu to be discovered within the prime classes. Carpenter made a fast turnaround together with her second album in simply over a yr, “Man’s Greatest Buddy,” and as soon as once more she is nominated for document, music and album of the yr. Roan and Eilish didn’t ship new albums, however are again with singles in competition. Lamar is the one who stands the best probability of getting an immediate replay, with each his “GNX” album and “Luther” single among the many front-runners of their respective classes, after he gained 5 awards final yr for “Not Like Us” — together with document and music of the yr — with out having an album in play.
Commercially, it’s been a down yr for hip-hop, however that didn’t dampen the keenness of Grammy voters, who gave the style better illustration than some had predicted moving into. Past Lamar’s main exhibiting, Doechii, Clipse and Tyler, the Creator all landed a stable 5 nominations every. They have been tied at that stage with the rock band Turnstile, producers Andrew Watt and Sounwave, and Lamar’s “Luther” duet companion, SZA.
If hip-hop was surprisingly well-represented, nation was very a lot underrepresented, with nary a nomination in any of the 4 all-genre classes. Wallen bowing out of competition might need made {that a} partial fait accompli, but Megan Moroney, Ella Langley and Zach Prime — all of whom have a significant look going into this month’s CMA Awards — have been all thought of main contenders for the most effective new artist class. Nashville’s lockout from the main classes yr after yr (except for an outlier like Beyonce’s one-time style dip) is certain to stir dialogue going ahead.
The Grammys will return to CBS and Paramount+ on Feb. 1 with a dwell broadcast and stream beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 PT.
Right here is the way it shook out in the entire Grammys’ 95 classes:
