2022 Grammy Awards Nominees Announced: Jon Batiste Leads With 11

The nominees for the 64th Annual Grammy Awards were announced on Tuesday.

The show will be changing its nomination process. In late April, the board of the Recording Academy voted to eliminate the use of anonymous expert committees to vote the final ballot in dozens of categories. This practice has been in place since 1989 and has been criticized by artists including Jay-Z, Drake, Kanye West and Frank Ocean.

The ceremony will be held on January 31, 2022 at the newly named Crypto.com Arena (formerly Staples Center) in Los Angeles.

Jon Batiste leads the nominations with a total of 11 nominations. Justin Bieber, Doja Cat and H.E.R follow with eight; Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo have seven each.
