Let's dive into the controversy surrounding Tommy Richman and the recent headlines claiming he's nominated in the Rap categories at the 2025 Grammy Awards. Spoiler alert: it’s not true!

Music journalist Sowmya Krishnamurthy breaks down the Grammy nomination process, explaining how music is submitted, nominated, and voted on. We’ll explore what genre Tommy Richman’s hit "Million Dollar Baby" should actually be considered for and the implications of these misunderstandings in the music industry.

Are genres relevant any more? What genre should Tommy Richman and "Million Dollar Baby" be in at the Grammys?

The nominations will be announced this week on November 8.

Update: Now that the Grammy nominations are out, Tommy Richman has not been nominated in any Rap category. I told you so :)
