Grammy Nominations 2022: Who Got Snubbed? Who Broke a Record? And Who’s on the …

Tyler Johnson

The 2022 Grammy nominations were announced on Tuesday, and it seems there are some very interesting storylines that will play out at this year’s ceremony.

For one, we have another heavyweight bout between Beyonce and Adele, who will once again square off in the record of the year, song of the year, and album of the year categories.

Of course, Beyonce is already the year’s big winner, having now tied her husband Jay-Z as the artist with the most career Grammy nominations of all-time.

Those Carters certainly know how to keep success in the family!

Elsewhere on the list of nominees, you’ll find Viola Davis, who — with a win in the best audio book category for her memoir Finding Me — would join the prestigious EGOT club.

(The term applies to the short list of entertainers who have have received an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and a Tony. Davis already has the other three trophies on her mantel.)
