Why Is 'Golden' From 'KPop Demon Hunters' Up for Song of the Year But Not Record? Chatting Through 2026 Grammy Nominations
On this week's Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are chatting through the 2026 Grammy nominations, starting with the Big Four categories (album, record and song of the year, plus best new artist), and continuing with our pop-focused musings down the list.
