Beyoncé continues to embark on watershed moments that embolden her position as a living luminary. She dominates the 2025 Grammy nominations with a whopping 11 nods, making history as the artist with the most Grammy nominations ever, brining her total to 99— just shy of 100.

The Grammy nominations were announced last week. You might have missed it because, even though the Grammy television show is the only award show people care about anymore, the Recording Academy has never done a very good job of building up narratives leading into the program itself.

Nominations for the music industry’s Grammy Awards were announced Friday. Below is a list of nominees in select categories. RECORD OF THE YEAR “Now And Then” – The Beatles “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM” – Beyoncé “Espresso” – Sabrina Carpenter “360” – Charli xcx “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” – Billie Eilish “Not Like Us” – Kendrick Lamar
