Grammy Nominations 2026: See the Complete List
After leaving as the top winner at the 2025 Grammy Awards earlier this year, Kendrick Lamar will head into the 2026 ceremony as the top nominee, picking up nine new Grammy nominations on Friday morning (Nov. 7).
Nipping at Lamar’s heels is Lady Gaga, along with producers Jack Antonoff and Cirkut, each with seven nods. Bad Bunny, Sabrina Carpenter, Leon Thomas and mixing engineer Serban Ghenea all scored six nominations during Friday’s Recording Academy livestream.
Lamar’s career Grammy nomination total has now reached 66, including 22 wins. He picked up five of those wins at the 2025 ceremony, including record and song of the year for his Billboard Hot 100-topping Drake diss track “Not Like Us.” This time around, Lamar has three Big Four nominations: He’s back in record and song for “luther,” his Hot 100-topping duet with frequent collaborator SZA, and picks up his fifth album of the year nomination with GNX. (Despite four previous nods, Lamar has yet to win album of the year.)
Lady Gaga is now up to 45 career Grammy nominations, with 14 wins. Just like Lamar, she also has three Big Four nods this year: record and song of the year for “Abracadabra” and album of the year for MAYHEM; also like Lamar, this marks her fifth nomination in the latter category with no wins. This is Gaga’s first time being nominated in those three categories simultaneously since the 2010 Grammys, when she competed with “Poker Face” and The Fame.
The 2026 Grammys are set for Sunday, Feb. 1, at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, airing live on CBS and Paramount+ Premium at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. Find the full list of 2026 Grammy nominations below:
