Beyoncé is reportedly planning to submit Cowboy Carter in the Country category at the upcoming GRAMMY Awards.
Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the artist aims to be in the running for Best Country Album, where she could possibly be competing against the likes of Post Malone, Chris Stapleton, Lainey Wilson, Zach Bryan, Kacey Musgraves and Moroney. The Recording Academy will help decide if her submission will be accepted, similar to the 2023 GRAMMYs when Renaissance remained and won in the dance category. Her 2016 album Lemonade also managed to secure nominations in a number of GRAMMY categories, including rock, rap, R&B and pop.
The report arrives shortly after Bey lost in all 17 categories she was nominated for at the People’s Choice Country Awards and her snub at the Country Music Awards where she did not receive a single nomination for the album.
In addition Best Country Album, THR states that Cowboy Carter is expected to receive a nomination for Album of the Year — marking her sixth nod.
