Grammys 2024: The Ultimate Guide – Date, Where to Watch, Nominees, and the Star-Studded Lineup

The 2024 Grammy Awards ceremony is taking place on Sunday, February 4th, at Los Angeles' Crypto.com Arena. The gala's most special guest is Jon Bon Jovi, who has been named 'Person of the Year', although most nominees are women, with SZA leading the group with nine nods for her hit album "SOS."

Other multi-nominated artists competing for the 66th Grammy Awards are Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, and Victoria Monét. All of them aspire to win in the three major categories of best album, record, and song. Jon Batiste is the only male artist in the group.

The soundtrack of the "Barbie" film could make history. The music of the movie has 11 nominations in seven categories, highlighting the work of artists like Eilish, Dua Lipa, Nicki Minaj, and Sam Smith. Ironically, the Oscar-nominated "I Am Ken" by Ryan Goslin didn't get any Grammy love.

Latino artists at the Grammys

Songwriter and producer Édgar Barrera has already made Grammy history this year. The Mexican American artist is the first person in Grammy's history to be nominated for songwriter of the year for music done totally in Spanish.

Venezuelan orchestra director Gustavo Dudamel has two nominations in the classical categories (for best orchestral performance and best classical compendium).

However, there were some big disappointments for Latin music fans in this year's Grammy nominations. Latino artists were not included in any of the leading categories (album, record, and song of the year); the best música urbana album category had only three nominees. Although Peso Pluma is up for best música Mexicana album for Génesis, he wasn't mentioned in the new artist category, as he very much deserved.
