The Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album is an honor presented at the

National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States to "honor artistic achievement, technical proficiency and overall excellence in the recording industry, without regard to album sales or chart position."[2]

The honor was first presented in 1968 at the

52nd Grammy Awards, the award is presented to artists that perform "albums containing at least 51% playing time of newly recorded pop vocal tracks."[3]

The award goes to the artist, producer and engineer/mixer, provided they worked on more than 50% of playing time on the album. A producer or engineer/mixer who worked on less than 50% of playing time, as well as the mastering engineer, do not win an award, but can apply for a Winners Certificate.[4]

Adele, Kelly Clarkson and Taylor Swift are the only two-time winners of this award, and Clarkson was the first to win twice. Clarkson leads all performers with six nominations.
