Mark your calendars for January 31, the date which was chosen by The Recording Academy chose for the prestigious event. We’re hoping the ceremony will be a momentous occasion rather than one beefed up by virtual appearances. Trevor Noah was announced as the host on Tuesday.
Before you go, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention here that Megan received her first slew of Grammy nominations today. Her “Savage Remix” featuring Beyoncé is up for Record of the Year and Best Rap Song, she could also take home Best New Artist or Best Rap Performance. Additionally, no surprise here, Givēon‘s Take Time is nominated for Best R&B Album. Queen Bey is up for nine noms in total.
