Beyoncé leads 2023 Grammy nominations, ties Jay-Z for most nods ever: See the full list

It looks like 2017 all over again.

Beyoncé and Adele are once again going head to head in this year’s Grammy Awards nominations, where they are nominated for album of the year for “Renaissance” and "30," respectively. The music superstars are also both vying for record and song of the year prizes (Beyoncé for dance floor anthem "Break My Soul" and Adele for breakup ballad “Easy on Me”).

The singers memorably faced off five years ago at the Grammys, when Adele’s "25" beat Beyoncé’s “Lemonade” for album of the year. The upset win sparked backlash from music fans and even drew an apology of sorts from Adele herself, who told journalists backstage at the show: "My album of the year (was) 'Lemonade.' ... It was her time to win."

"They're both icons, and they're both people that continue to produce super-high quality art," Recording Academy president Harvey Mason Jr. says. "Vocally, they’re so extremely extraordinary – two of the best singers we have in our industry. But there was so much good music made this year. Our creative community never ceases to amaze and surprise me with the types of work that comes out, and the abundance of excellence that our voters have to choose from."

Beyoncé leads the 2023 Grammys lineup with nine nominations, including best dance/electronic album ("Renaissance"), best R&B performance ("Virgo’s Groove") and best traditional R&B performance ("Plastic Off the Sofa"). She’s trailed by hip-hop star Kendrick Lamar with eight nods, for his first album in five years, "Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers."

Adele, meanwhile, earned seven nominations, tying with Americana singer Brandi Carlile, whose seventh studio effort "In These Silent Days" is also up for album of the year. Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny also became the first artist to score an album of the year nomination for an album completely in Spanish with “Un Verano Sin Ti.”

With 28 wins and 88 total career nominations, Beyoncé now ties her husband, rapper Jay-Z, for the most nominations in Grammy history. If Beyoncé picks up four or more awards this year, she will surpass the late Georg Solti for the most Grammy wins of all time. (The Hungarian-born conductor holds the record with 31.)

Beyoncé and Jay-Z have got "to be the most intense power couple in the history of music," Mason says. "That’s music and Grammy royalty – that’s the royal family." Their combined 176 nominations are "absolutely a testament to their talent, to their level of excellence, to their work ethic, to their level of greatness over a long period of time. I don’t even know what the next (leading) couple would be, but it’s not anywhere close.”

The 65th annual Grammy Awards will be held Feb. 5 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The ceremony will air live on CBS and stream on Paramount+ (8 ET/5 PT).
