Queen B accumulates 88 nominations throughout her career, which makes her the most nominated artist in the history of the awards

We will have to wait until February, but we already know who will fight to win a 2023 Grammy award and of course the “battle” is expected to be intense. Beyoncé writes a new page in her personal history with the nine nominations she achieves with her seventh studio album, titled Renaissance. Thus, the artist, one of the undisputed stars of the music scene, adds 88 nominations in these awards (she has won 28) throughout her career, a record that equals her husband Jay Z and makes them the most named in the life of these awards. The artist, known as Queen B, will not make it easy for her competitors, among whom are Adele (with 8 nominations), Harry Styles (with six), Mary J. Blige (also six) and Taylor Swift, who was crowned just a few days as the winner of the MTV EMA’s with four awards.

The Spanish Rosalía, whose international career does nothing but accumulate exciting recognitions, aspires to two gramophones: best Latin rock or alternative album for Motomami and best long-form music video for the performance she made of it on TikTok. In this 2023 edition, five categories are added to the list, including composer of the year (not in classical music) and the best soundtrack for video games and other interactive media.
