Nominations for the 2020 Grammy Awards were announced Wednesday morning, although fans will have to wait until Jan. 26, 2020 to find out who will win big on the music industry’s big night.
With eight Grammy nods, Lizzo led the group of artists, writers, producers and singers nominated. Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X followed closely, with six nominations apiece. The four main categories — Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist — also saw multiple nominations for Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, and Lana del Rey.
The 62nd Annual Grammy Awards will take place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and air on CBS, with musician Alicia Keys as host.
