The Grammy nominations, which are the industry’s greatest prizes, were released on Tuesday. The awards will be presented in Los Angeles on January 31.

Jon Batiste received the most Grammy nominations in the best album field that included newbies like adolescent phenom Olivia Rodrigo and veterans like Tony Bennett.

Along with Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, R&B artist Doja Cat, singer-songwriter H.E.R., rapper Kanye West, Bennett’s collaboration with Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, and rapper Lil Nas X, Batiste, and Justin Bieber will compete for the top honor: album of the year.

For the first time, the number of nominees in each of the top three categories – album, song, and record of the year – was expanded from eight to ten.

Machine Gun Kelly, a rapper from Cleveland, appeared to be dissatisfied with the nominations.

The singer took to Twitter and wrote, “w** is wrong with the grammys.”

After suspicions that the process was subject to rigging and Canadian musician The Weeknd received zero nominations, the Recording Academy revised the method by which nominees and winners were picked earlier this year.
