Guess Who's Nominated For A 2016 Grammy

Here's the list of 2016 Grammy nominations

The 2016 Grammy nominations are here, and is it as you expected?

Shoo-in Kendrick Lamar leads the list of nominees with 11 nods. The Weeknd follows with nine, and the Alabama Shakes with six. His album To Pimp A Butterfly is up for Album of the Year and Rap Album of the Year. "Alright" has garnered noms for Song of the Year, Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song and Best Music Video.

It's also no surprise that Grammy darling Taylor Swift is nominated for Album of the Year and Song of the Year ("Blank Space" is a nice choice). She's up against some tough competition for the Grammy's biggest award -- Alabama Shakes, Kendrick Lamar, Chris Stapleton and The Weeknd are all up for Album of the Year as well.
