The 2025 Grammys have laid their cards on the table, and it all comes down to Beyoncé.

The “Texas Hold ‘Em” singer officially broke the record to become the most nominated artist in the history of the Grammys, receiving 11 nods — including for Record, Song and Album of the Year — for her 2024 country album, Cowboy Carter. Beyoncé, who is already the most awarded artist in history with 32 phonographs, previously shared the nominations with her husband Jay-Z, but she has gained the upper hand this year with a total of 99 nominations to her name.

The Houston native, who faced criticism that her country album isn’t really country, swept the Grammys’ country categories, earning nods for Best Country Solo Performance, Best Country Duo/Group Performance, Best Country Song and Best Country Album .

Queen Bey may be calling the shots on this year’s nominations, but a few artists are nipping at her heels: Billie Eilish; PostMalone; the inventor of Brat summer, Charli XCX; and Kendrick Lamar, whose viral feud with Drake spawned the summer hit “Not Like Us,” each received seven nominations. Taylor Swift and first-time nominees Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan followed closely behind, earning six nods each.

This year, female artists also dominated the Best Pop Vocal Album category, with Carpenter, Roan, Eilish, Swift and Ariana Grande taking home the award for their stellar records. Women also made up the majority of nominated artists in this year’s Record, Album and Song of the Year categories.

Members of the Recording Academy vote on the Grammys every year. The final round of voting closes on January 3, just under a month before music’s biggest night airs live from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 2.
