2025 Grammy Nominations: Which Snubbing Artist Should Get Big Four Nod? Vote!

The Recording Academy has revealed its 2025 Grammy nominations list, and some pretty huge names weren't on it — at least, not in all the Big Four categories fans might expect.

Although stars like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Beyoncé, Charli XCX and more were widely recognized on the nerve-wracking list announced on Friday (November 8) — with Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter both on vocals, record and album of the year as well as best new artist the following year — other A-listers were notably absent from one or all of those major categories. Ariana Grande, for example, won nothing in the Big Four despite producing two Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits. 1 (“Yes, And?” and “We Can't Be Friends”) from her Billboard 200 album. Eternal Sunshinewhile the No. 1 Shaboozey's 16-week single “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” won song of the year, but was completely passed over for record of the year.

Similar situations arose for “Die With a Smile” collaborators Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, as well as Benson Boone, each of whom was recognized in some Big Four categories but paid dust in others that would have made sense based on their respective charts. prowess in 2024. Hozier also had a huge year with “Too Sweet,” but was mistreated in the song and record of the year categories, while LISA and Sexyy Red were notably absent from this year's best new artist category. Additionally, Dua Lipa received nothing Radical Optimismnor did Post Malone receive Big Four praise for his banner F-1 Tris year (though he added a few songs and recordings to his belt thanks to his “Fortnight” duet with Swift).
