Best New Artist competition also features Lil Nas X, who went from TikTok fame to an unstoppable musical sensation with his genre-bending earworm “Old Town Road” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, which racked up a record-breaking 19 weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100.
Despite her album “Reputation” being nearly snubbed at last year’s ceremony, Taylor Swift is practically a Grammys veteran at just 29 years old, with 32 nominations and 10 wins over her career. She fared slightly better this time around with her seventh studio album “Lover” with three nominations. The record spawned hit singles like “ME” and “You Need To Calm Down.”
But don’t count out Ariana Grande, who’s had her most successful year yet. Mere months after dropping the R&B-infused “Sweetener,” which ended up scoring the singer her first Grammy for Best Pop Album, Grande surprised fans with her chart-topping fifth studio album “Thank U, Next,” which scored five Grammy nods this year.
And while enthusiasm for Lady Gaga’s “A Star Is Born” has waned since it was released in October 2018, its full soundtrack wasn’t eligible for the Grammys until this year due to the recording academy rules. “Always Remember Us This Way” scored a Song of the Year nomination, while the soundtrack and “I’ll Never Love Again” also received nods.
Last year’s nominations were also dominated by women, including Cardi B and Kacey Musgraves, who went on to become the big winner of the night. Despite being a no-show at the ceremony, Childish Gambino also took home top prizes for his song “This Is America,” which won in all four of its nominated categories.
The 62nd Grammy Awards will air live from Los Angeles’ Staples Center Jan. 26 on CBS.
