Nov 15, 2022, marks the announcement of the 2023 Grammy award nominations, and the star-studded list is to be one for the books airing on Feb 5, 2023.
Ahead of the announcements featuring the nominees for the next year, those artists who have released new tracks and music during last year’s eligible period, prominently Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Adele, and Harry styles were some of the few musicians’ fans have predicted to take the gold.
