Beyonce has surpassed her husband Jay-Z in lifetime Grammy nominations after earning 11 nods for the 2025 Grammy Awards.

The 43-year-old singer dominated the nominee list, securing an Album of the Year nomination for her new country music project ‘Cowboy Carter’.

Her nominations also include Record and Song of the Year for her hit single “Texas Hold ‘Em.”

With these latest nominations, Beyonce’s career total rises to 99—setting a new record for any artist.

Previously, she and Jay-Z, 54, were tied with 88 nominations each, with Jay-Z holding 24 wins.

Additionally, ‘Cowboy Carter‘ has made history as the most Grammy-nominated album ever, surpassing Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller‘ as well as her own past albums, ‘Renaissance‘ and ‘Lemonade‘.

While Beyonce holds the record for the most Grammy wins with 32 awards, she has yet to win the prestigious Album of the Year trophy.
