Which album of Beyonce was nominated for the Grammy's Album of the year?
Beyonce's popular album 'Renaissance' was nominated for the Grammys this year alongside ABBA’s 'Voyage', Adele’s '30', Bad Bunny’s 'Un Verano Sin Ti', Brandi Carlile’s 'In These Silent Days,' Coldplay’s 'Music of the Spheres,' Kendrick Lamar’s 'Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers,' Lizzo’s 'Special,' and Mary J. Blige’s 'Good Morning Gorgeous (Deluxe)'. Meanwhile, when journalists asked Styles if he expected Beyoncé to win in the category, he stated, "You never know with this stuff.

Another stated, "If I was Harry Styles I would simply not talk and just give the Grammy to Beyoncé." "You expect us to believe Harry Styles had a better album than Beyoncé, Lizzy, AND Adele??? That man know... #Grammys2023," asked a user. Another said, "I feel like I’m being gaslit about Harry Styles. Like what is going on out here? First we had a Rolling Stone trying to call him the King of Pop and now he wins album of the year over Beyoncé?? Shenanigans are afoot." "They gave Harry Styles an album of the year award before Beyoncé. What this woman has to release to get AOTY? They snubbed Beyoncé, Lemonade, and now Renaissance. I’m confuseddddd," claimed another.
