With the new format, the Grammy nominees to be unveiled on November 22

The Recording Academy announced that the 2022 Grammy nominations will be announced on November 23. As Variety.com reports, the unveiling takes place just two days before Thanksgiving, as it did last year.

This year’s roster may differ significantly from the roster of recent years, as the Academy has eliminated the “secret” nomination committees of artists, creators and industry experts who curated final lists over the past few decades.

Now, the final nominees will be largely chosen by the wider Grammy voting body. This move and subsequent overhaul of the Academy Awards team, following last year’s controversial nominations, saw the inexplicable weekend leading up to one of the most successful albums of the year and, with ‘Blinding Lights’, one of the most successful albums of the year. A successful single of the 2000s, received no nominations.

The eligibility period for the 2022 awards will be 13 months due to industry delays due to the pandemic.

Earlier this week, Variety also confirmed that the Academy is holding two honorary awards shows, the Grammy Hall of Fame and its special merit awards, for a year. There is a delay in revising its process in the past and the Academy plans to restart it next year; The latter has been delayed because last year’s honors have not yet been properly accepted. That news was first reported by Billboard.

The Grammy Awards will return on January 31, 2022, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, and will be broadcast live on the CBS television network and streamed live and on-demand on Paramount+.
