Beyoncé is not only the top nominee for the year, with nine nominations; she has also increased her career nomination total to 88, tying her with her husband, Jay-Z, for the most Grammy nominations received by any artist.

Bad Bunny also earned a huge distinction after his record-breaking 2022 album, Un Verano Sin Ti, became the first Spanish-language release named in the album of the year category.

The list contained some surprises, with Abba receiving multiple nominations, including record of the year for "Don't Shut Me Down." Mary J. Blige was also included in that category, with "Good Morning Gorgeous."
