Jay Z has become the leader in the number of Grammy nominations of 2018

Yesterday, a list of candidates was announced for one of the most authoritative music awards for all singers, the Grammys, which will be held January 28 at Madison Square Garden in New York. The first position in it belongs to her husband Beyonce rapper Jay Z.

Most promising

The outgoing year turned out to be extremely successful for the star family Beyonce and Jay Zi, who became parents of twins and head all sorts of ratings of the most successful representatives of show business.

The 47-year-old rapper, whose personal capital exceeds $ 800 million, has every chance to start well in 2018 as well. According to the list of nominees promulgated by the Grammy organizers for the jubilee 60th Grammy Music Award, Jay Z with the album "4:44" became the leader. He claims to have figurines in eight categories.

Competitors are not asleep

In the back Jay Z breathes 30-year-old Kendrick Lamar and his disc "Damn". The hip-hop artist has seven nominations.

In third place is the author of "24K Magic" 32-year-old Bruno Mars. The pop singer will compete with eminent colleagues in six categories.

And where is Taylor?

Only songs that were released from October 1 of last year to September 30 of this year can apply for Grammy. That is why Taylor Swift's recent album "Reputation", presented in November, can not be a competitor of the Grammy Award 2018.
