The Grammys Academy has announced November 10th as the date the nominations for the 2024 awards would be revealed as members prepare to vote.

The 2024 Grammy Awards is set to be a historical one after the Academy announced the creation of three new categories: Best African Music Performance, Best Alternative Jazz Album, and Best Pop Dance Recording.

The 66th Grammys will also be the first time the award for the Best African Music Performance will be presented on stage.

According to a news report by chart news platform Chart Data, 122 songs were submitted for the Best African Music Performance category. A Billboard article released after the creation of the new African category shortlisted Adekunle Gold's 'Party No Dey Stop', Davido's 'Unavailable', and Asake's '2:30' among the front runners to be nominated for the newly created African category.
