The 2022 Grammy nominations were announced Tuesday (Nov. 23), and some of the biggest stars of the dance scene have been nominated for the first time.
Marshmello, Illenium, Black Coffee, Major Lazer and Chicago house duo Ten City are all first-time Grammy nominees and are competing against each other for best dance/electronic album — a category that also includes Sylvan Esso, a 2017 nominee in this category. (Diplo of Major Lazer has — on his own and with other projects — earned 10 nominations and three Grammy wins.)
The best dance/electronic recording category is similarly populated with well-known names, including Rüfüs Du Sol, Caribou, James Blake, Tiësto, frojack and David Guetta, all of whom are either previous nominees or previous Grammy winners.
These categories included one major snub, with Porter Robinson being completely shut out of the nominations. After releasing his much-anticipated and highly celebrated sophomore LP Nurture this past April, Robinson was considered a front-runner in the two main dance/electronic categories. He expressed his dismay after Tuesday’s nominations by simply tweeting a raised-eyebrow emoji. (Rezz responded by saying she’s “dialed the FBI.”)
The dance/electronic categories are typically light on female nominees, and this year is no exception. The three women nominated in the three dance/electronic categories are Amelia Meath of Sylvan Esso, producer Griff and producer Tracy Young, who in 2020 became the first female artist to win a Grammy for best remixed recording for her edit of Madonna’s “I Rise.”
On this topic, previous Grammy nominee Tokimonsta tweeted, “I [love] seeing so many good friends nominated for the Dance / Electronic categories, but there is a painfully obvious lack of female presence this year—& I heard plenty of aaamazing female produced songs. Fellow musicians: The change happens w us the voting members.”
