Topping the list of nominees for the 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards® are Beyoncé (11), Charli xcx (7), Billie Eilish (7), Kendrick Lamar (7), Post Malone (7), Sabrina Carpenter (6), Chappell Roan (6), and Taylor Swift (6). As the only peer-voted music award, the GRAMMY Awards® are selected by the Recording Academy®'s voting membership body of music makers, who represent all genres and creative disciplines, including recording artists, songwriters, composers, producers, mixers, and engineers. The nominees were announced via a livestream event on live.GRAMMY.com and YouTube.

"Today we celebrate the amazing creative achievements of our music community," said Harvey Mason jr., CEO of the Recording Academy. "It was an incredible year in music and these nominations reflect the work of a voting body that is more representative of the music community than ever before. The GRAMMY® became music's most coveted award precisely because the recognition comes from one's peers, and I'm so grateful for the Academy's 13,000 voting members who take the time to evaluate all the amazing music, cast their votes, and honor their peers. Congratulations to all the nominees."

This year's eligibility period includes recordings released between Sept. 16, 2023 – Aug. 30, 2024.
