Grammy Awards 2023
|
As we enter the For Your Consideration period of the 2023 Grammy Awards, it’s time to revisit the conversation around one of the most frequently confusing categories at the annual awards show: Best New Artist. Show Last year, we dug into the head-scratching slew of nominees, which included Japanese Breakfast, Glass Animals (who have been active for more than a decade), and FINNEAS (who had already won eight Grammy Awards at the time of his nomination in this category). Before Grammy nominations for 2023 are released on Tuesday, November 15th, we’re breaking down everything to know about the Best New Artist category. Who Was Nominated for Best New Artist in 2022?The Academy tends to ultimately grant the Best New Artist to fairly established artists who are having an exceptional breakthrough year. In 2022, the nominees were Olivia Rodrigo, Arooj Aftab, Jimmy Allen, Baby Keem, FINNEAS, Glass Animals, Japanese Breakfast, and The Kid LAROI. As for the past three years, Rodrigo won in 2022, while Megan Thee Stallion took the prize in 2021, and Billie Eilish snagged the honor in 2020.
Which Artists are Eligible for Best New Artist in 2023?According to Billboard, a whopping 368 artists have submitted to the category for the 2023 round of nominations. To be eligible, an artist or act must have released a minimum of five songs or one album, may not have submitted for the Best New Artist category more than three times, and must have “achieved a breakthrough into the public consciousness during the eligibility period.” That last point, being a bit vague, is often the cause of confusion when it comes to nominees who land in this category.

For the second year in a row, 2022 Grammy host was The Daily Show's Trevor Noah.
• 95-year-old Tony Bennet became the second oldest Grammy winner ever when he and Lady Gaga won best traditional pop vocal album for “Love for Sale,” their collection of Cole Porter standards. (The oldest Grammy winner remains Pinetop Perkins, the 97-year-old pianist, who won for best traditional blues album for “Joined at the Hip” in 2011.) • With three Grammy nominations this year, Jay-Z became the most-nominated artist ever, with 83 nods.
Controversies at awards shows are nothing new, but this year's Grammys have made headlines with several snafus, including the removal of Taylor Swift and two of her collaborators as songwriters on Olivia Rodrigo’s “Sour,” which was up for album of the year. According to Grammy guidelines, song samples or “interpolations,” disqualified the writers from being credited. The following day, rapper Drake -- who in the past has had a contentious relationship with the Grammys -- withdrew his name entirely from 2022 competition after being nominated for best rap album and best rap performance. Kanye West was supposed to perform this year, but after recent erratic behavior targeting his estranged wife Kim Kardashian and Grammy host Trevor Noah, he was pulled from the show
The first ever Grammy for Best Rap performance was awarded in 1989 to Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff for "Parents Just Don't Understand". • The Grammy Awards presentation is the second-most-watched awards show after the Oscars. • The Grammy Awards are the only music awards that are voted upon by music peers. Nominations and winners are determined by the Recording Academy's voting membership, which is composed of music artists, producers, songwriters, and engineers. • In 2021, Beyoncé earned her 28th Grammy, surpassing country-bluegrass artist Alison Krauss, who’d held the record with 27 Grammys. • In 1989, the Fresh Prince (Will Smith) and DJ Jazzy Jeff won the first Grammy for a Rap performance. • The first artists to be stripped of their Grammys were Milli Vanilli in 1989, when it was discovered that their album was not originally sung by them. The duo, which won for Best New Artist that year, lip-synced a live performance during the program. • Rapper Snoop Dogg has been nominated 12 times for a Grammy but has never won.
