60th Annual Grammy Nominees

The nominees for the 60th Annual Grammy Awards were announced earlier today. Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar and Luis Fonsi top the list of nominations along with Jay-Z. Missing from the list entirely is Taylor Swift, while Ed Sheeran earned very few.

In fact, the nine most-nominated artists are people of color, and for the first time since 1999 Album of the Year a white male on the nomination list. That year, it was Sheryl Crow, Garbage, Lauryn Hill, Madonna and Shania Twain, a very female-centric selection.

The new artist nominations went to Alessia Cara, Khalid, Lil Uzi Vert, Julia Michaels and SZA.

Song of the year includes "Despacito," "4:44,"  "Issues," "1-800-273-8255," and "That's What I Like"

Movie soundtrack nominations went to Baby Driver, Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2: Awesome Mix Vol. 2, Hidden Figures: The Album, La La Land and Moana: The Songs.

The 2018 Grammy Awards will be held on Sunday, Jan. 28, 2018 from Madison Square Garden in New York City.
