The 64th Annual Grammy Nominations are in, and Jon Batiste has swept 11 categories, including Record of the Year and Album of the Year, making him the recognized artist of the awards. Doja Cat and H.E.R. tie with eight, while breakout pop star Olivia Rodrigo cinched seven award nominations including Best New Artist, as predicted. Lil Nas X, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, and Justin Bieber have all also been generously endowed this awards season. This year, the Grammys recognize music from a 13-month span, September 1, 2020, to September 30, 2021. The nominations were made solely by voting members, whose ranks have grown by 17 percent, eliminating the nomination committees The Weeknd spoke out against and expanding each of the categories.
