Another record for Queen Bey! Beyoncé made Grammy history last night by becoming the most nominated artist of all time. With an impressive total of 99 nominations, she now surpasses her previous record of 88 nominations, which she held with husband Jay-Z. This year, Beyoncé receives 11 nominations for the 2025 ceremony, including those for Album of the Year and Country Album of the Year with Cowboy Carter, as well as for the song “Texas Hold 'Em” in several categories , including song of the year and country song of the year. These nominations cover a wide variety of musical genres, from pop to country, Americana and melodic rap.
“Everything comes in time to those who wait”
Highlight: this is the first time that Beyoncé has been nominated in the country and Americana categories. She could also become the first black woman to win the Grammy for album of the year in the 21st century, an award that has only gone to a black woman three times before, to Lauryn Hill, Natalie Cole and Whitney Houston .
This record is particularly symbolic if we consider past years. Despite her countless successes and influence on the Music industry, Beyoncé has never won the Grammy for Album of the Year, an award that Taylor Swift has won three times (including last year). . This has also given rise to numerous debates on the injustice of not seeing Beyoncé crowned in this category, despite flagship albums like Lemonade and Renaissance. If she wins this prestigious Grammy, she will establish herself as an essential figure in the history of the Grammy Awards, reinforcing her legendary place in the world of music.
