Beyoncé Receives No Nominations at This Year’s CMA Awards Despite Record-Breaking Country Album

On Monday, September 9, the nominees for the 2024 CMA Awards were revealed.

The 58th CMA Awards are just around the corner! Although the host and performers have yet to be announced, the CMA has officially revealed this year’s nominees.

Fans are excited to see their favorites nominated. Country superstar Morgan Wallen was the most nominated of the evening, with seven nominations this year. Cody Johnson and Chris Stapleton followed closely, with five nominations each.

We’re also seeing some new nominees, like Post Malone, who not only received his first-ever CMA nomination but is up for four awards in total. Breakout star Shaboozey is also a first-time nominee, earning nods for Single of the Year for his No. 1 hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and New Artist of the Year.

 

While fans are thrilled to see newcomers getting recognized in the country music world, some are surprised that certain other artists didn’t receive nominations.

People were shocked to see that Beyoncé was not nominated in any category at this year’s CMA Awards. She debuted in the country scene this year with her album Cowboy Carter, which made history by spending four weeks at the top of Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, making her the first Black woman to achieve this. She also became the first Black woman to reach No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart with “Texas Hold ‘Em,” which held the top spot for an impressive 10 weeks.

We’re also seeing some new nominees, like Post Malone, who not only received his first-ever CMA nomination but is up for four awards in total. Breakout star Shaboozey is also a first-time nominee, earning nods for Single of the Year for his No. 1 hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and New Artist of the Year.
