James Bay
The 25-year-old British singer was nominated for his first Grammys for his album, Chaos and the Calm.
Diplo, Justin Bieber, Skrillex
Justin Bieber's new album, Purpose, was released after the deadline, but his single, "Where Are Ü Now," hit the airwaves just in time to be eligible for the 2016 Grammys. Jack Ü and the Biebs are up for Best Dance Recording.
Tori Kelly
This will be the "Nobody Love" songstress' first Grammy nomination! She's up for Best New Artist.
Meghan Trainor
Doesn't it seem like Meghan Trainor has been around forever? Despite being nominated for Record of the Year at the 2015 Grammys, this year she's in the running for Best New Artist.
Charlie Puth, Wiz Khalifa
The "See You Again" performers continue to dominate the music industry with their Paul Walker-inspired hit.
Fetty Wap
The "Trap Queen" artist has received his first Grammy nominations.
The Weeknd
His music has taken the world by storm, so it's no surprise that he received many nominations for the 2016 Grammys. But what makes him stand out, however, is the fact that not only is this the "Earned It" performer's first Grammys but also that he nabbed seven nods.
Kendrick Lamar
Pop fans might know him as the rapper on Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood," but rap fans have been watching Lamar for quite some time. He has been a staple at the Grammys for the past few years, but this year he appears in 10 different categories for his work and collaborations with other artists.
Alabama Shakes
The Southern band broke onto the Grammys scene in 2012, but hasn't been able to take home the coveted trophy. Nominated in several categories this year, perhaps the Alabama-born group will finally win.
