At only 17, the “Bad Guy” singer is nominated for Best New Artist, Record, Album, and Song of the Year. This nomination puts her in competition with Lizzo, the fiery R&B star who also is uniquely new to the Hollywood scene.

The Grammys are ushering in a new wave of artists with their nominations, having mainly new artists nominated as talent for their top four categories. This change contrasts with the past nominees, which many felt received nominations at the expense of new musicians. Stars such as Lil Nas X and Lizzo are at the top of the pack, Lizzo winning with eight nominations.
