This year’s Grammys sees SZA tops the nominations with a total of nine nods, including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song Of The Year.
Taylor follows close behind with six nominations, and will also be competing against SZA in the three aforementioned categories.
The majority of her nominations were for her acclaimed album Midnights and its single Anti-Hero, which earned some of the best reviews of her career.
That track is up for Record of the Year, a category that honors the artists who recorded the song and its producers and engineers, as well as for the Song of the Year category, which honors songwriters.
