This Sunday, the music industry will once again don its gala attire for the 68th Grammy Awards ceremony, which promises to move past last year's solemn tone to focus on the show and artistic competition. All eyes will be on Kendrick Lamar, who arrives as the top contender with nine nominations, reaffirming his dominance in the hip-hop scene. Close behind are Lady Gaga and Bad Bunny, each with seven nominations. The Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny has six nominations and is once again competing in the top category, Album of the Year, with his album "DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS." The event, taking place at the Crypto.com Arena, will be hosted for the sixth and final time by comedian Trevor Noah. The main gala will begin at 10:00 PM (Argentina time) and will be broadcast for Latin America on the TNT cable channel and the Max platform (formerly HBO Max). Prior to that, starting at 5:30 PM, the "Premiere Ceremony" (where most technical awards are presented) can be followed on the official YouTube of the Academy. The Recording Academy has confirmed a stellar lineup of performances, including Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Tyler, the Creator, and the duet of the moment, Rosé and Bruno Mars, who will perform their global hit "APT.". The eight nominees for Best New Artist will also take the stage, including The Marías and Addison Rae. The tribute segments promise to be emotional: Ms. Lauryn Hill will pay homage to D’Angelo and Roberta Flack. A supergroup formed by Post Malone, Slash, Chad Smith, and Andrew Watt will honor Ozzy Osbourne's career. The In Memoriam segment will feature the voices of Reba McEntire, Brandy Clark, and Lukas Nelson.
