There were several artists were anticipated in the Big Four categories when the 2023 Grammy nominations were announced on Tuesday (Nov. 15), including leading candidates Beyoncé (9), Kendrick Lamar (8), and Grammy favorites Adele and Brandi Carlile.

Jason Lipshutz, the creator of Pop Shop, joins Katie & Keith on the new Pop Shop Podcast to discuss our quick first impressions of the top categories, including the record of the year, the album of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.
