Grammys 2024 recap: Biggest moments from music's biggest night

Women occupy nearly all the spots in three of the big four categories this year, including album of the year, song of the year and record of the year.

In the album of the year category, the list of nominees consists predominantly of women, including Miley Cyrus, Lana Del Rey, Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, SZA and the indie group boygenius, which includes Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers and Lucy Dacus.

Janelle Monáe, who uses she/her and they/they pronouns, is also nominated in the album of the year and record of the year categories, marking a major moment for non-binary performers.

Joining Monáe in the record of the year category are boygenius, Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Monét, Rodrigo, Swift and SZA.

Del Rey, Swift, Rodrigo, Lipa, Cyrus, SZA and Eilish also dominated the song of the year category.

Jon Batiste is the only male artist who is nominated in each of those categories.

Monét arrived on the Grammy Awards red carpet Sunday with boyfriend John Gaines and their 2-year-old daughter Hazel, turning the event into a family affair.

Monét, who received seven nominations total this year and took home the awards for best R&B album and best engineered album, non-classical, for "JAGUAR II" earlier in the day, wore a bronze gown that matched her daughter's ensemble.

Hazel was nominated alongside her mom for best traditional R&B performance for her appearance on Monét's track "Hollywood," becoming the youngest person ever nominated for a Grammy.

Dua Lipa, Victoria Monét, Brandi Carlile and boygenius -- whose members include Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker -- are among the stars who have arrived on the Grammys red carpet.

Lipa, who is nominated tonight for song of the year for "Dance The Night (From Barbie The Album)" stepped out in a silver fringe gown with a plunging neckline.

Best new artist nominee Monét, who has already won tonight for best engineered album, non-classical, and best R&B album for "JAGUAR II," stepped out on the red carpet in a gold corseted gown.

Bridgers, Dacus and Baker, who picked up several awards earlier in the evening as well, all wore matching white suits. Carlile wore an orange suit with a pink bowtie.

Ahead of the 2024 Grammys, the Recording Academy introduced three new categories: best African music performance, best alternative jazz album and best pop dance recording.

The best African music performance category "recognizes recordings that utilize unique local expressions from across the African continent," according to the Grammys website. The category includes but is not limited to the Afrobeat, Afro-fusion, Afro Pop, Afrobeats, Alte, Amapiano, Bongo Flava and Genge genres.

Best pop dance recording "recognizes tracks and singles that feature up-tempo, danceable music that follows a pop arrangement," the Recording Academy said. "Eligible Pop Dance recordings also feature strong rhythmic beats and significant electronic-based instruments with an emphasis on the vocal performance, melody and hooks."

The best alternative jazz album category "recognizes artistic excellence in alternative jazz albums by individuals, duos and groups/ensembles, with or without vocals," according to the Grammys website. It is defined as a "genre-blending, envelope-pushing hybrid" of music that "mixes jazz" with other genres.
