Here Are the Nominees to Be Excited for (or Not) at the Grammys

The 2022 Grammy Nominations were announced today, and there was a lot to celebrate for our communities. And while this post will focus on the Latine Categories for the Grammys, it’s important to note that other non-Latine categories had nominations we’re proud of. 

From Cardi B’s nomination for Best Rap Performance for “Up” to a nomination for In the Heights for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media, the reasons to watch the Grammys are long and varied. That also includes The Marias for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical and acoustic guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela for Best Arrangement, Instrumental and A Cappella.
