The Grammy nominations for 2019 came out overnight, and our main takeaways are firstly, that it’s been quite a year in music, and secondly, that we can now refer to our boy Bradley Cooper as “Grammy-nominated recording artist Bradley Cooper.”
The Album Of The Year field is pretty crowded, with Janelle Monae‘s Dirty Computer, Cardi B‘s Invasion Of Privacy, Kendrick Lamar‘s Black Panther soundtrack and Kacey Musgraves‘ gorgeous Golden Hour amongst the nominees.
Taylor Swift, Shawn Mendes, Ariana Grande and Camila Cabello scored nods for Best Pop Vocal Album, while Dua Lipa, Bebe Rexha are Greta Van Fleet all made the cut for Best New Artist.
Somewhere in the world, Lady Gaga is letting out a delighted “haaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaah, aaaa-aaaaaaaaaah’ that the news that ‘Shallow‘, from the soundtrack of A Star Is Born, received a Record Of The Year nod.
