In recent years we've had artists like Lil' Wayne, Kanye West, Beyonce, Mariah Carey, John Legend and Mary J. Blige receive the most Grammy nominations in a single year. So, who will receive the most nominations at this year's Grammy Awards? Will it be one artist or will it be multiple artists? Discuss.
Here is a recap of the most nominations in a single year this decade:
2000 - Beyonce, Dr. Dre 2001 - U2 2002 - Ashanti, Sheryl Crow, Eminem, Norah Jones, Avril Lavigne, Nelly, Raphael Saadiq, Bruce Springsteen 2003 - Beyonce, Jay-Z, OutKast, Pharrell Williams 2004 - Kanye West 2005 - Mariah Carey, John Legend, Kanye West 2006 - Mary J. Blige 2007 - Kanye West 2008 - Lil' Wayne
The last time an artist received ten nominations was in 2004. Kanye was the leading nominee, and he was nominated for a bunch of features/collaborations and technical categories. Plus, he had his own work in contention. There's no way Beyonce is getting that many nominations.
8 has been the limit for some years now.

LOL...
I don't think Cederick is joking at all. He has Beyonce in every possible category.

Beyonce recieved the most Grammy nominations in 2000? How many nominations did she recieve? And for what???? Haha..
And I'm going with Taylor Swift...and possibly Maxwell (his album) afterwards. I feel like he might get a lot of R&B and General Field nominations this year...he'll probably have more nominations than Beyonce (even though I love you, Bey!!!)
Here are the most nominations each leading artist received this decade:
2000 - Beyonce, Dr. Dre (5) 2001 - U2 (8) 2002 - Ashanti, Sheryl Crow, Eminem, Norah Jones, Avril Lavigne, Nelly, Raphael Saadiq, Bruce Springsteen (5) 2003 - Beyonce, Jay-Z, OutKast, Pharrell Williams (6) 2004 - Kanye West (10) 2005 - Mariah Carey, John Legend, Kanye West (8) 2006 - Mary J. Blige (8) 2007 - Kanye West (8) 2008 - Lil' Wayne (8)
my predictions on some potential leaders. I think Kanye might leads the nominees again.
Whitney- [5 Nominations] -Album -Pop Female -R&B Female -R&B Duo or Group -R&B Album
Taylor Swift (6 nominations) - Album - Pop Female - Country Female - Country Album - Record of the Year - Album of the Year
Lady Gaga (4 nominations) -Record of the Year -Dance Recording -Short Form Music Video -Dance/Electronic Album
Beyonce (6 nominations) -Pop Female -Song of the Year -R&B Song of the Year -R&B Contemporary Album -R&B Female Vocal -Traditional R&B Performance
Keri Hilson- 4 nominations -Best New Artist -Rap/Sung Collaboration -R&B Song -Contemp. R&B Album
Black Eyed Peas (4 nominations) -Record of the Year -Dance Recording -Pop Duo or Group -Pop Vocal Album
Kanye West (8 nominations) -Pop Male Vocal -Rap Duo or Group 2x ("Amazing" & "Make Her Say") -Rap Song "Run This Town" -Rap/Sung Collaboration 3x ("Ego", "Run This Town", "Knock You Down") -R&B Song "Knock You Down"
Eminem (4 nominations) -Rap Solo -Rap Duo or Group -Rap Song -Rap Album
Maxwell (6 nominations) -Song of the Year -Album of the Year -Pop Male Vocal Performance -R&B Male Vocal Performance -R&B Song -R&B Album

I don't think Kanye will be nominated three times in Rap/Sung. The only songs I see him getting in for are "Run This Town" and "Knock You Down." Anything else would be overload. AOTY, SOTY and ROTY are quite possible. I don't see him getting into all three, though. He will most likely be the leading nominee yet again.
What about the Rock bands or oldies? I'm sure they will land a slew of nominations.

If Kanye is nominated for "Ego," then Beyonce will have 7 nominations...
I thought it was going to be Whitney with 15.
