    2026 GRAMMY NOMINATIONS: SKRILLEX, FRED AGAIN.., RÜFÜS DU SOL, DISCLOSURE AND MORE HIT THE ELECTRONIC CATEGORIES

    The Recording Academy has officially revealed the nominations for the 2026 GRAMMY Awards, and electronic music is more present — and more powerful — than ever.

    This year features a lineup that blends dance culture with mainstream domination. While Kendrick Lamar leads the pack with 9 nominations, heavy hitters like Lady Gaga, Jack Antonoff, and Cirkut follow with 7 each — but the electronic scene has its own shining moment.
