She’s also competing in pop solo performance, pop vocal album, dance pop recording, and traditional pop vocal album. Antonoff pulled in double nominations for record, album, and song of the year thanks to his work with Kendrick and Sabrina Carpenter. He also landed his first-ever rap song nomination for ‘tv off’ with Lamar, featuring Lefty Gunplay.
