Grammy Award, tra i premi alla carriera ci sono anche i Nirvana!
La cerimonia di premiazione avrà luogo alla Crypto Arena di Los Angeles nella serata del 5 febbraio 2023. Nelle categorie inerenti al mondo dance, Beyoncé dovrà contendersi il grammofono con David Guetta e Bebe Rexha, freschi vincitori di due MTV Ema’s grazie a ‘I’m Good (Blue)’, Bonobo, Diplo e Rüfüs du Sol (per tutti e tre doppia nomination sia come Best Dance Recording che come Best Dance Album), Kaytranada e Odesza.
I Nirvana saranno celebrati con uno speciale premio Grammy alla carriera prima della cerimonia principale del 4 febbraio.
A ricevere il premio speciale anche The Supremes, Nile Rodgers, Slick Rick, Ma Rainey, Bobby McFerrin e i membri delle Heart Ann Wilson e Nancy Wilson.
Per quanto riguarda la scena rap, la contesa sarà un duello a due da Dj Khaled (sei nomination in totale) con il suo ‘God Did’ e Kendrick Lamar (otto candidature) che quest’anno si presenta con l’ultimo lavoro in studio ‘Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers’. Entrambi gli artisti – così come Future – arriveranno alla cerimonia di Los Angeles con quattro nomination nelle categorie di genere Best Rap Performance, Best Melodic Rap Performance, Best Rap Song e Best Rap Album.
Una menzione speciale al premio Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media che verrà assegnato per la prima volta nell’edizione 2023.
Beyoncé non ha disatteso le aspettative. Ai Grammy Awards 2023, Queen B arriva con nove nomination, tra cui quelle nelle categoria Song of The Year, Recording of the Year, Album of The Year, Best Dance Recording e Best Dance Album.
La cantante americana raggiunge così quota 88 nomination, diventando l’artista ad averne collezionate di più nella storia della competizione in ex-equo con – ironia della sorte – suo marito Jay-Z. Con 28 statuette vinte all’attivo, la signora Carter potrebbe anche puntare a battere il record del direttore d’orchestra Georg Solti (31) e puntare al primato come artista più vincente di sempre ai Grammy.
A competere con Beyoncé per aggiudicarsi il premio come miglior album dell’anno ci saranno gli Abba, Adele, Bad Bunny, Mary J Blidge, Brandi Carlile, Coldplay, Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo e Harry Styles.
