Frank Ocean went from 1 nomination to 6 nominations in no time helping him lead the way with the most nominations for the night.
What a night for Frank Ocean. We predicted Frank would walk away from tonights Grammy Nominations with at least 1 nomination for Best New Artist with a possibility for another two – but 6? We didn’t see that coming. Channel ORANGE was nominated twice, once for “Album of the Year” and the other for “Best Urban Contemporary Album”. On top of that he received nominations for his contributions for Kanye West & Jay-Z’s “No Church In The Wild”. Check out the full nominations below to see who Frank will be competing with for each award.
