Miley Cyrus

In 2023, Miley Cyrus received her first Grammy nomination for her original music in more than ten years. With an impressive tally of 8 nominations, Miley stands a strong chance of clinching awards in categories such as Best Pop Vocal Album for “Endless Summer Vacation,” Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Thousand Miles,” Best Pop Solo Performance for “Flowers,” and Song of the Year for “Flower.”

Taylor Swift

The pop superstar has seven nominations, including album of the year for “Midnights”, her re-recorded version of her 2014 album. She could become the first artist to win album of the year four times, and the second woman after Barbra Streisand to do so.

Billie Eilish

The 20-year-old sensation has six nominations, including record of the year and song of the year for “What Was I Made For?”. She could make history by winning Record of the Year three times in a row, and by winning three major categories twice.

Jon Batiste

The jazz musician and Oscar winner leads the nominations with 11, spanning across jazz, American roots music, classical, and general fields. He could tie or break the record for the most Grammys won in one night, currently held by Michael Jackson and Santana with eight

Olivia Rodrigo

The 19-year-old breakout star has seven nominations, including best new artist, album of the year for “Sour”, and record and song of the year for “drivers license”. She could join Billie Eilish and Christopher Cross as the only artists to win all four major categories in one night

H.E.R.

The R&B singer-songwriter has seven nominations, including album of the year for “Back of My Mind”, and record and song of the year for “Fight for You”. She won song of the year last year for “I Can’t Breathe”, and could repeat the feat this year.

Doja Cat

The rapper and singer has seven nominations, including Record of the Year for “Kiss Me More” featuring SZA, and Album of the Year for “Planet Her”. She could become the first female rapper to win Album of the Year, and the second rapper overall after Outkast

BTS

The K-pop sensation has four nominations, including Record of the Year for “Butter”, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Butter” and “Permission to Dance”. They could become the first Korean act to win a Grammy, and the first non-English act to win Record of the Year
