The Recording Academy announced the nominees for the 2022 Grammy Awards on Tuesday (Nov. 23) with Jon Batiste scoring 11 nods and Olivia Rodrigo and FINNEAS nominated in each of the Big Four categories: album, record, and song of the year plus best new artist.
Latin artists were also recognized by the Recording Academy, including Camilo, who recently won four Latin Grammys. The Colombian singer-songwriter’s Mis Manos (Hecho a Mano/Sony Music), which won the Latin Grammy for best pop vocal album, is now in the best Latin pop album category against Pablo Alborán, Ricardo Arjona and Selena Gomez, to name a few.
Bad Bunny’s El Último Tour del Mundo is nominated for best musica urbana album, against Rauw Alejandro’s Afrodisiaco, J Balvin’s Jose, Karol G’s KG0516 and Kali Uchis’ Sin Miedo (Del Amor y Otros Demonios); the Puerto Rican artist took the award at the Latin Grammys this past Thursday.
First-time Latin Grammy winners C. Tangana and Nathy Peluso also received Grammy nominations, both in the best Latin rock or alternative album category. Though C. Tangana nabbed three Latin Grammys, it was Peluso who nabbed the trophy for best alternative album for her album Calambre.
Other 2021 Latin Grammy winners who also received 2022 Grammy noms are Karol G, Christian Nodal, Vicente Fernandez, Rauw Alejandro and person of the year Ruben Blades, to name a few.
