The 2024 Grammy Awards are underway, as artists from across the music industry hope to take home the coveted award.
The Grammy Awards are once again being held at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena, with the show airing live on CBS and streaming on Paramount+, featuring performances from some of music’s biggest stars. Comedian and former “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah has returned to host the ceremony for the fourth time in a row.
SZA earned the most nominations of any artist this year with nine, including nods for album of the year, record of the year and song of the year. Although she had earned 15 Grammy nominations prior to this year’s selections, her sole win coming into Sunday was for best pop duo/group performance in 2022 for “Kiss Me More.” She quickly added more awards this year though, including a win for best R&B song early in the program.
Competing with SZA in the album of the year category is Taylor Swift and her 2022 album “Midnights.” A win in that category would give Swift four career album of the year awards, the most for any artist. Swift surprised the audience during her acceptance speech for best pop vocal album by announcing she would be releasing her next album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” on April 19.
Serban Ghenea, an audio engineer and mixer who has worked with Swift and Olivia Rodrigo, earned seven nominations, along with Victoria Monét and Phoebe Bridgers, who got six nods with her band boygenius and one for her collaboration on SZA’s “Ghost in the Machine.”
