The Grammy Awards, the pinnacle of music’s biggest night, are set to take place in Los Angeles on Sunday. With an eight-hour runtime and 94 categories, the ceremony will showcase the industry’s brightest stars, including Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, and Kendrick Lamar.

From record-breaking nominations to thrilling performances, here’s what to expect from the 2025 Grammys.

Who Will Take Home Album of the Year?

One of the most anticipated categories of the night is Album of the Year, where Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, and Charli XCX are all vying for the coveted trophy.

Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter marks her fifth attempt at the category, following four previous losses. The ambitious project celebrates Black contributions to country music, a theme that could resonate with Grammy voters.
Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft is the bookmakers’ favorite. The genre-blending album has been widely praised for its bold, cinematic storytelling.
Charli XCX’s Brat, the best-reviewed album of 2024, has become a cultural phenomenon, though its experimental edge might not appeal to the Grammys’ traditional voters.
Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department was last year’s biggest-selling album. If she wins, Swift will make history as the artist with the most Album of the Year wins ever.
The competition is fierce, and any of these artists could take home the top prize.

Other Key Categories: Record & Song of the Year
The Record of the Year race is stacked with star power, featuring Sabrina Carpenter’s Espresso, Charli XCX’s 360, Beyoncé’s Texas Hold ’Em, Billie Eilish’s Birds of a Feather, and Kendrick Lamar’s Not Like Us—the latter being a scathing diss track aimed at Drake. If Lamar wins, it will be only the second hip-hop song to claim the award.

For Song of the Year, Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga’s Die With A Smile is the frontrunner, with strong competition from Shaboozey’s A Bar Song (Tipsy), Chappell Roan’s Good Luck Babe, and Billie Eilish’s Birds of a Feather.

Meanwhile, Best New Artist is shaping up as a battle between Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter, two breakout stars who dominated 2024.

Which Grammy Records Could Be Broken?

This year’s Grammys could rewrite the history books:

Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter could become the most-awarded album in Grammy history if it surpasses the nine trophies won by Santana’s Supernatural in 2000.
Billie Eilish could become the first female artist to win Record of the Year three times.
André 3000 could set a record for the longest Grammy-winning song title with I Swear, I Really Wanted to Make a ‘Rap’ Album But This Is Literally the Way the Wind Blew Me This Time.
Star-Studded Performances & Tributes
The Grammys are as much about live performances as they are about awards. This year’s lineup includes Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, Benson Boone, Shakira, Stevie Wonder, Teddy Swims, and Raye. Additionally, the ceremony will feature a special in memoriam tribute to Quincy Jones, the legendary producer behind Michael Jackson’s Thriller.

With surprises, historic moments, and jaw-dropping performances on the horizon, the 2025 Grammy Awards are set to be an unforgettable night in music history.
