Grammy Nominees

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

The Grammy Nominees was a series of various artists compilation albums, released from 1995-2020, celebrating the best of the music industry. Albums were released before the airing of the annual

Grammy Awards. All of the songs on the albums were Grammy nominated in the year released. Other Grammy series albums were briefly issued for rap nominees
(1999–2001) and Latin nominees (1998–2005).

Each regular album from 1995 through to the 2007 edition was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), while the 1996 and 2000 editions were certified Platinum.[1] After 25 years, the release of Grammy compilation CDs was stopped due to the declining interest and sales of physical media.[2]
