Rules are also shifting: Best New Artist now allows four submissions, albums need only 66% new material to qualify, and internet-only releases can compete for Best Album Notes and Best Historical Album. Big wins for creators too — songwriters and composers will now receive their own Grammy statuettes. All changes reflect the Recording Academy’s push to stay relevant, inclusive, and true to today’s evolving music landscape. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
