2023 Grammy Award nominations: See full list

It's time to face the music: the 2023 Grammy Awards nominations are officially here.

On Tuesday, the Recording Academy unveiled its nominees for the 65th annual Grammy Awards, but, let's be real, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have already solidified themselves as the real winners this year. The Renaissance artist leads the pack with nine nominations to her name, while Jay-Z received three. In doing so, Beyoncé has officially tied with her husband for the title of most-nominated artist in Grammys history at 88 nods each. As the old adage says: the couple that slays the awards circuit together, stays together.

Other nominees hot on Beyoncé's heels are Kendrick Lamar with eight nominations, Brandi Carlile and Adele with seven apiece, and Mary J. Blige, Future, and Harry Styles each with six. Taylor Swift also notably nabbed noms for Song of the Year and Best Music Video for her 10-minute track "All Too Well" and its accompanying short film featuring Stranger Things star Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien, which Swift wrote and directed.

The livestreamed announcement saw Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. accompanied by a cast of stellar artists who each helped reveal the coveted shortlist, including Jimmie Allen, Luis Fonsi, John Legend, Machine Gun Kelly, Smokey Robinson, and Olivia Rodrigo. It also featured performances by Dan + Shay and Cyndi Lauper.

Among those noticeably absent from this year's list were Silk Sonic, Drake, and The Weeknd, who have all asked to be removed from consideration for the coveted golden gramophone this year.

The Grammys are set to be voted on by the Recording Academy's voting membership body of music makers, who represent all genres and creative disciplines, including recording artists, songwriters, producers, mixers, and engineers. The final round of voting, which will determine all winners, will be held Dec. 14 through Jan. 4.

Music lovers will discover who's taking home a trophy when the awards ceremony returns to Los Angeles' Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, Feb. 5, 2023 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS and Paramount+.
