Here Are the 2017 Grammy Nominations
We are a couple months out from the 59th annual Grammy Awards, but the list of nominees is here.
Artists nominated in the general field categories were first announced on Tuesday on CBS This Morning, while the rest of this year’s list was rolled out later on the official Grammy website.
Of course, this year’s awards mark the first time in the show’s history that the Recording Academy has made streaming only recordings eligible for Grammy consideration. The announcement meant that Chance the Rapper‘s incredible Coloring Book mixtape would be in the running for a nomination. “We’ll celebrate the Grammys’ recognition of grass-roots independent artists and this new way of releasing music by nominating me. We’ll fucking go crazy for, like, two days straight,” Chance previously told Billboard about how he would react to a nomination. Unfortunately for Frank Ocean’s fans, the artist’s independently released Blonde was not submitted by his team for consideration.
Check out the full list of this year’s Grammy nominees below and catch the ceremony when it goes down Feb. 12 at L.A.’s Staples Center with host James Corden on CBS.
