Taylor Swift and Beyoncé to go head-to-head for best album at Grammy Awards

Taylor Swift, Beyoncé go head-to-head at 2025 Grammy Awards

Taylor Swift and Beyonce are set to battle it out for the album of the year award at the 67th Grammy Awards on Sunday.

The ceremony in Los Angeles will see performances from Brat star Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish and Chappell Roan, with Beyonce being the most recognised artist with 11 nominations.

The 43-year-old’s Cowboy Carter album could become the awards’ most decorated LP, a title currently held by Santana’s Supernatural, which received nine awards in 2000, and one of the record’s singles, Texas Hold ‘Em, is up for the record of the year, song of the year and country song of the year.

Should it win the top award, the LP would be Beyonce’s first record to win best album, having previously failed with 2008’s I Am… Sasha Fierce, 2013’s Beyonce, 2016’s Lemonade and 2022’s Renaissance.

But the former Destiny’s Child member will face still competition from Swift, 35, whose The Tortured Poets Department has been nominated.

Swift herself has also received five other nominations.

The Anti-Hero singer made Grammy history in 2024 as the first person to win album of the year four times with Midnights.

The US star used her acceptance speech at the ceremony to announce the release of her 11th studio album, which saw her become the most-streamed artist in a single day on streaming platform Spotify.

Swift and Beyonce’s albums will also square off against Charli XCX’s Brat, Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet, Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard And Soft and Chappell Roan’s The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess for the album of the year Grammy.

Beyonce made history during the Grammys ceremony in 2023, securing the most awards won in a lifetime after picking up her 32nd award.

Kendrick Lamar, Charli XCX, Post Malone and Billie Eilish follow Beyonce as joint-second most-nominated artists, each with seven nods.

Elsewhere, The Beatles are up for two awards for their 2023 song Now And Then, created with the help of artificial intelligence (AI).

The Fab Four are nominated for record of the year and best rock performance.

British star Raye has also received nods for best new artist and songwriter of the year non-classical.

In the best new artist category, she will compete against Roan, rising rapper Doechii, Benson Boone, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, Carpenter and Khruangbin, despite the latter pair releasing their debut studio albums almost a decade ago in 2015.

This year’s show will be dedicated to wildfire relief, after wind-driven blazes swept through parts of Los Angeles this month, destroying neighbourhoods and killing at least 28 people.

The 2025 awards, which will see 94 awards handed out, are given to recordings commercially released in the US between September 16 2023, to August 30 2024.

Last year’s ceremony saw Eilish take home song of the year for her hit track What Was I Made For? from the Greta Gerwig film Barbie, while Miley Cyrus won record of the year for her viral summer sensation Flowers.
