Music's most anticipated night is right around the corner.
Whether you're blasting the radio or streaming their tunes, today's top artists can be heard everywhere — and in just a few more weeks, the Recording Academy will honor their work from the past year at the 64th Grammy Awards.
The nominations for the 2022 ceremony were announced in November 2021 and span across 86 diverse categories, which include two new awards this year. Leading the pack with the most nods is Jon Batiste, who received a total of 11 this year.
Not far behind are hit-makers Justin Bieber, H.E.R., and Doja Cat with eight nominations and Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo with seven. Of those seven, the "Drivers License" singer nabbed a nod in each of the big four categories including record of the year, album of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.
The 64th Grammy Awards comes a year after the 2021 ceremony was touted as "quarantine-friendly and partly virtual," amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
