A Grammy pre-nomination is a list of recordings that are submitted by record companies and individuals. Those songs are displayed in a list where they are voted to actually be an official nominee for whichever category. It’s kind of like the elections with a ballot voting system. The nomination and final voting processes requires that members vote only in their fields of expertise. The 5 recordings that earn the most votes become the nominees. So Drake has been listed 7 times in that list under 5 different categories. That means he hasn’t been nominated yet but there’s chances that he may be! The general public can’t vote but like we stated above, it is members of the Recording Academy(over 150 experts from the recording industry) who will be able to vote. Let’s hope the best for Drake! 7 Grammy Pre-Nominations without an album? That’s insane! Check out the categories & recordings nominated below.
