2025 Grammy Nominations: The Biggest Snubs & Surprises

Music’s biggest night is almost here — no, not the closing night of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. The 2025 Grammy nominations were unveiled on Nov. 8, with the help of Kylie Minogue, Victoria Monet, Ben Platt, and Mark Ronson.

The award show’s 2025 roster is stacked with culture-defining albums and songs from Grammy darlings like Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift, plus breakout artists like Chappell Roan, Charli xcx, and Sabrina Carpenter. Given the strong competition, fans expected many snubs and surprises on the morning of nominations.

Only recordings released between Sept. 16, 2023, and Aug. 30, 2024 are eligible to be nominated at the 2025 ceremony, meaning some of your favorite new songs, like Lady Gaga’s “Disease,” will be in contention for next year.

The 2025 Grammy Awards will take place on Feb. 2 at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena and air live on CBS and Paramount+. Here are the biggest snubs and surprises from the nominations.
