The 2022 Grammy nominations will be reported on Tuesday, November 23, the Recording Academy declared. The uncovering requires only two days prior to Thanksgiving, as they were last year.
The current year’s list could be altogether not the same as ones lately, as the Academy has disposed of the “secret” nominating committees of artists, creators and industry experts that curated the last records over the recent many years — presently, the last nominees apparently will be picked by the broader Grammy voting body. The move — and a resulting upgrade of the Academy’s awards group — was made after last year’s controversial nominations, which inexplicably saw the Weeknd, who’d had one of the best albums of the year and, with “Blinding Lights,” one of the most successful singles of the 2000s, getting no nominations at all.
The 2022 awards will have a 13-month eligibility period, because of industry delays brought about by the pandemic.
The Academy additionally published a list of pertinent dates for the 2022 Grammys:
Sept. 1, 2020-Sept. 30, 2021:- Product Eligibility Period
Oct. 22-Nov. 5, 2021:- First Round Voting
Tues, Nov. 23, 2021:- Candidates Announced for the 64th Annual Grammy Awards
Dec. 6, 2021-Jan. 5, 2022:- Last Round Voting
Mon, Jan. 31, 2022:- 64th Annual Grammy Awards
*Key Grammy Week occasions will be declared nearer to the date.
Recently, They additionally affirmed that the Academy is stopping two honorary awards programs, the Grammy Hall of Fame and its special merit awards, for one year. The previous is being postponed to update its process and the Academy plans to relaunch it one year from now; the last is being deferred on the grounds that last year’s honorees have not yet been as expected acknowledged. That news was first revealed by Billboard.
The Grammy Awards return to Los Angeles’ Staples Center on Mon, Jan. 31, 2022, and will broadcast live on the CBS Television Network and stream live and on request on Paramount+ at 8-11:30 p.m. ET/5-8:30 p.m. PT.
