The 2023 Grammy Award Nominations Have Been Announced

The nominations are in for the 2023 Grammys, with chart toppers BeyoncéTaylor SwiftLizzo and Harry Styles all picking up multiple nominations. Following years of alleged misconduct by senior staff and accusations of racial bias, the Grammys eliminated their contentious policy of voting by secret committee in 2021, instituting a more transparent nomination model that is open to public scrutiny.

But with DJ Khaled and his critically panned but commerically celebrated album, God Did, picking up multiple nominations, including one for for Best Rap Album, one might still question the criteria by which the Grammys nominate and whether profitability may supersede musical quality. A claim perhaps reinforced by boycotts from artists such as The Weeknd, Silk Sonic, Drake and others.

DJ Khaled – God Did

Even The Simpsons had a crack at the Grammys back in 1993, which suggests the event’s self-appraisal as “the music community’s highest [honour]” may be a little overstated.

Next year’s Grammys will be held on Sunday, 5th February and streamed live on Paramount+ from Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena. Hosts, presenters and performers to be announced soon. The full list of nominations is below.
