“Fair, transparent and accurate” Grammy nominations announced

The Grammy Awards nominations have been announced. For all 94 categories. Ninety Four! It’s just too many, isn’t it? And there are only four that anyone really talks about, so I don’t know why they bother with the other 90, really. Seems like a lot of effort.

This year there are three new categories too. They are Best African Music Performance, Best Alternative Jazz Album and Best Pop Dance Recording. Their addition, says the CEO of Grammys organiser the Recording Academy, Harvey Mason Jr, will make the awards "more fair, transparent and accurate”. So that’s good. Probably.

Anyway, I’m not about to list the nominees for all 94 categories - you can view them all here if you really want to - but just in case you were wondering, Flamy Grant wasn’t shortlisted for Best Pop Vocal Album.

The ceremony itself will take place on 4 Feb 2024 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

Now, here are the nominees for what I think we can all agree are the big and truly important prizes that will be presented on the night:
