His Compton counterpart Kendrick Lamar scores seven nods for his critically-acclaimed album DAMN., which was recognized for Album of the Year and Record of the Year (“HUMBLE.”). Lamar has now been nominated 20 times and won seven Grammys.

Bruno Mars may see more Grammy gold in his future. The R&B crooner, who has won five Grammys, earns six six nods this year, including Album of the Year (24K Magic), Song of the Year (“That’s What I Like”), and Record of the Year (“24K Magic”), which he previously won in 2015 for “Uptown Funk” with Mark Ronson.

Childish Gambino follows with five nominations for his acclaimed album Awaken, My Love!, which was nominated for Album of the Year, Record of the Year (“Redbone”), and Best Urban Contemporary Album.

Woke up to find out that I’m nominated for 5 Grammys. I’m in shock. I’m so thankful man this is unbelievable.
