Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny tops the list of nominees for the 2025 Latin Grammys, announced on Wednesday (Sept. 17). The artist received 12 nods for the awards ceremony, including for album of the year with DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS and double mentions in record of the year and song of the year, in both cases for “BAILE INoLVIDABLE” and “DTmF.”
These nominations add to the 40 he has received in the past, of which he has won 12 over the years. He is closely followed by acclaimed Mexican musician Edgar Barrera and Argentine duo CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, each with 10 nominations.
Barrera, who led the list of nominees the last two years, is once again competing for songwriter of the year and producer of the year, and appears in multiple categories for his work with artists such as Karol G, Shakira, Maluma, Fuerza Regida, and Grupo Frontera. Similarly to Bad Bunny, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso are also nominated for album of the year, for Papota, and got double nominations in the record of the year and song of the year categories, for “El Día Del Amigo” and “#Tetas.”
As in previous years, the album of the year category includes artists from a variety of genres, reflecting the diversity within Latin music. In addition to Bad Bunny and CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, they include Rauw Alejandro, Gloria Estefan, Vicente García, Joaquina, Natalia Lafourcade, Carín León, Liniker, Elena Rose and Alejandro Sanz.
Additionally, this year a new field for Visual Media has been added along with two new categories: best music for visual media and best roots song.
The best new artist award will be contested by Alleh, Annasofia, Yerai Cortés, Juliane Gamboa, Camila Guevara, Isadora, Alex Luna, Paloma Morphy, Sued Nunes, and Ruzzi.
“We’re pleased to present this year’s nominees for the 26th Annual Latin Grammys,” Manuel Abud, CEO of the Latin Recording Academy, said in a statement. “The impact of Latin music continues to grow on a global level, and all the nominated artists encompass its diversity and richness while continuing to preserve the iconic sounds that make our music unique.”
Other contenders with multiple nominations include Rafa Arcaute, Natalia Lafourcade, Roberto Rosado, and Federico Vindver, with eight each; MAG, with seven; Liniker and Lewis Picket with six each; and Gino Borri and Vicente Jiménez with five. Artists with four nominations include Antonio Caraballo, Joaquina, Elena Rose, and Alejandro Sanz. Among those with three are Andrés Cepeda, Karol G, and Carín León. Two-time nominees include Akapellah, Rauw Alejandro, Rubén Blades, Gloria Estefan, Mon Laferte, Maluma, Fito Páez, and more.
The 26th Annual Latin Grammy Awards will be broadcast live from Las Vegas on Thursday, Nov. 13, at 8 p.m. ET/PT in the U.S. on TelevisaUnivision platforms. Prior to the live broadcast, the Latin Grammy Premiere, a non-televised event where the majority of winners are announced, will take place.
