Justice after the Grammy Awards
Among the nominees, several names stand out: the Nice singer Santa, revealed within the pop group Hyphen Hyphen before her solo takeoff thanks to the success of “Popcorn Salé” in 2022. Spectacular in concert, she is among the most programmed artists during summer festivals. Santa was also crowned “French-speaking female artist of the year” in 2024 at the NRJ Music Awards. Nominated in four categories (female artist, album, original song and concert), it’s hard to imagine her leaving empty-handed.
Gims, Clara Luciani, Philippe Katerine, Yseult and Zaho de Sagazan (who won everything last year) are again on the starting line; the opportunity for them to deliver highly anticipated live performances.
The Justice duo competes in three categories (including male artist), but will perhaps, twelve days before the Parisian evening, have received their laurels at the American Grammy Awards which cited them twice.
Among the revelations, the former “star-academician” Pierre Garnier is already among the big record sellers of the year 2024 and already seems to be a step ahead of Alyocha Schneider and Lucky Love, who complete the trio of boys named . Among the girls, Solann, Styleto and Yoa are in the race.
Finally, let’s note an originality: the nomination for the title of “concert” of the year for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
