Beyoncé received the most Grammy nominations through the 2025 ceremony, with 99 nominations.
She became the most nominated artist in Grammy history at the 2023 ceremony, surpassing her husband Jay-Z, who had previously held the record. Her nominations cover solo releases, group work, collaborations, songwriting, production, and music videos.
The 2025 ceremony added several nominations connected with Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé’s country-influenced album. The album’s recognition illustrated the breadth of her Grammy profile, which has extended beyond the R&B and pop categories most associated with her earlier career.
Nomination totals differ from wins because one recording can receive several nominations in a single year, and artists may be nominated in roles such as performer, songwriter, or producer. The total therefore measures Grammy recognition, not simply the number of trophies received.
