The nominations for the 2025 Grammy Awards will be announced today, with several milestones expected to be reached by some of the world’s biggest artists. Taylor Swift is predicted to receive an Album of the Year nod for her latest hit album, The Tortured Poets Department, which would pull her out of a tie with Barbra Streisand and place her as the woman with the most nominations in the category. Other artists vying for Album of the Year nominations include 2024’s breakthrough star Chappell Roan with her debut, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, and Sabrina Carpenter with her sixth record, Short n’ Sweet.

Charli XCX is another hopeful thanks to her critically adored , trend-setting album Brat, as is Beyoncé for her country-influenced record, Cowboy Carter. Hip-hop star Kendrick Lamar is likely to be nominated for both Record and Song of the Year for his diss track “Not Like Us”, which would tie him with Jay-Z for the most nods in those categories by a rapper. Nominees will be announced during a livestream on the Grammy website and the Recording Academy’s YouTube channel on Friday (8 November) at 8am PT and 11am ET (4pm GMT) Follow live updates.
