Taylor Swift’s “Renaissance” and “Mr Morale & the Big Steppers” were well received by both critics and viewers. Another highly publicized effort was Swift’s “Midnights,” which set numerous records. The record, however, didn’t get any nominations.

Photos have surfaced online of the singers seat, confirming her attendance at the Grammys in 2 days.

The 33-year-old R&B singer’s tenth studio album, “Midnights,” set a number of milestones. She was the first singer to have songs from her critically acclaimed album take up all ten of the top positions on the Billboard Hot 100.

 Swift topped the charts by unseating a number of musicians, including Drake, Rihanna, 21 Savage, and others. Her record was not nominated for a Grammy this year, though, as “Midnights” was released after the deadline for eligibility had passed. 

The album has already met the requirements to participate in the 2024 Grammy Awards even if it did not garner any nominations this year. The current record holder has taken home 11 Grammys so far.

According to the Recording Academy’s submission requirements, work must have been made available between Friday, October 1, 2021, and Friday, September 30, 2022 in order to be eligible for this year’s awards.

Just one month after the submission deadline, on October 21, 2022, Taylor Swift’s “Midnights” was made available. The record cemented its position as the best album despite receiving no nominations. 

“Anti-Hero,” which debuted at No. 1, remained at the top of the charts for eight weeks. With the announcement of the Eras Tour in 2023, it also generated controversy.

Actually, Taylor Swift is still in the race, and she has a good chance of winning multiple prizes. Her works like “Red (Taylor’s Version)” have received nominations in the Album of the Year and Best Country Album categories. 

She was nominated for Song of the Year, Best Song Written for Visual Media (Carolina from Where the Crawdads Sing), Best Country Song (‘I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault), and Best Music Video, totaling four nominations (All Too Well: The Short Film). 

Beyonce, Lizzo, Harry Styles, Kendrick Lamar, and other prominent musicians are up against Swift in the competition.
