Remember: to be nominated, a song or album must have been released between between October 1, 2015 and September 30, 2016. So don't expect any nods for The Weeknd — or Frank Ocean for that matter.

The nominees for some of the biggest categories are below, but the full list of nominations can be viewed here.
