Phoebe Bridgers of Boygenius performs at the Coachella Music & Arts Festival at the Empire Polo Club on Saturday, April 15, 2023, in Indio, Calif. Bridgers received seven Grammy nominations on Friday

The 2024 Grammy Awards took center stage at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 4. Amidst the glitz and glamour, one performer emerged as the night's biggest winner – Phoebe Bridgers. This talented artist swept the awards, taking home an impressive total of four Grammys.

Bridgers secured three awards alongside her fellow musicians Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus, who together form the celebrated girl group Boygenius. Their soul-stirring song 'Not Strong Enough' earned them the prestigious accolades for Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song. Additionally, Boygenius clinched the Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album with their debut record, 'The Record.'

In yet another triumph, Bridgers received a Grammy in the category of Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her featured vocals on SZA's track 'Ghost in the Machine.' These multiple victories solidified Bridgers' position as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

While SZA led the nominations with a staggering nine nods when they were announced in November 2023, it was Bridgers who ultimately stole the show. SZA's remarkable song 'Kill Bill' was up for highly-coveted awards like Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best R&B Performance, though she did not secure wins in these categories. Nevertheless, she did manage to claim the Grammy for Best Traditional R&B Song with her track titled 'Snooze.' SZA's album 'SOS' also received recognition, earning nominations for Album of the Year and Best Progressive R&B Album, the latter of which she triumphantly won.

The Grammy Awards of 2024 portrayed a strong female presence in the world of music. Alongside Bridgers, another notable artist, Victoria Monét, garnered a remarkable seven nominations. Monét's hit song 'On My Mama' gained attention as it vied for awards like Record of the Year and Best R&B Song. Her album 'Jaguar II' secured nominations for Best R&B Album and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. Additionally, Monét was recognized in the Best New Artist category, emphasizing her rising stature in the industry.

Audio engineer and mixer Serban Ghenea also had an outstanding evening with seven nominations. His impressive body of work, which included collaborations with artists such as Jon Batiste, Taylor Swift, and Olivia Rodrigo, garnered him well-deserved recognition.

Other notable figures who left their mark at the 2024 Grammy Awards were Billie Eilish, Brandy Clark, Miley Cyrus, Jack Antonoff, and Taylor Swift, each earning six nominations. Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, and Billie Eilish walked away with two awards apiece, adding to their remarkable accolades.

Upon hearing news of her nominations, Miley Cyrus took to social media to express her gratitude and appreciation for her fans. She shared a heartfelt message, extending congratulations to all the Grammy nominees and highlighting the powerful presence of women in the music industry. For Cyrus, the real trophy lies in the love and adoration her music receives worldwide.

The 2024 Grammy Awards presented an opportunity for talented artists to shine and be recognized for their exceptional contributions to the world of music.
