The Recording Academy has announced the 2024 Grammy nominations this morning. There are two big winners: Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar.
Beyoncé leads the pack with 11 nominations, including nods for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year. What’s more telling is the breadth of her nomination: she got nominations in pop and dance, rap, and country categories.
Kendrick Lamar—who hasn’t released an album since Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers in 2022—cleaned up on beef, picking up nominations for “Not Like Us” and his show-stealing appearance on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That.”
More traditional and mainstream pop artists also had great mornings, with singers like Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, Charli XCX, and Billie Eilish also getting significant love this year.

Here are seven burning questions we have.
