With these new nominations, Beyoncé’s career total now stands at 99, further solidifying her status as the Grammys’ most-nominated artist of all time. She also holds 32 Grammy wins, the highest of any artist in history. A major contributor to this record-breaking achievement is her genre-defying 2024 album Cowboy Carter, which earned nominations across a wide range of categories. These include three in the general fields—Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year for the album’s lead single, “Texas Hold ‘Em.” In addition, Beyoncé earned four nominations in country music categories, two in pop, one in rap, and one in Americana, showcasing her versatility and cross-genre appeal.
Both Shaboozey and Raye earned nominations in the prestigious Best New Artist category, marking pivotal milestones in their burgeoning careers. Shaboozey’s genre-defying sound and captivating vocals have garnered widespread critical acclaim, while Raye’s soulful melodies and powerful voice have struck a chord with audiences around the globe.
