In questi giorni sono state diffuse le nomination dell’edizione 2015

dei Grammy Awards.Sam Smith, Beyoncé e Pharrell Williams sono gli artisti che hanno portato a casa il numero più alto di candidature, e Queen Bey è diventata l’artista che ha ottenuto più nomination in tutta la storia del prestigioso premio: ben 52! Pharrell Williams è presente in diverse candidature soprattutto nei panni di produttore (c’è anche lui dietro il successo di album come “X” di Ed Sheeran o l’omonimo album di Beyoncé), mentre Sam Smith ha conquistato tutti con il suo disco d’esordio “In The Lonely Hour“. Il cantautore inglese trova che sia assolutamente fantastico essere fra gli artisti più nominati assieme a Queen Bey, uno dei suoi idoli musicali: Si sono difesi bene anche Ed Sheeran, Iggy Azalea, Meghan Trainor e tanti altri.
