What to know about the 3 new Grammys categories

Ahead of the 2024 Grammys, the Recording Academy introduced three new categories: best African music performance, best alternative jazz album and best pop dance recording.

The best African music performance category “recognizes recordings that utilize unique local expressions from across the African continent,” according to the Grammys website. The category includes but is not limited to the Afrobeat, Afro-fusion, Afro Pop, Afrobeats, Alte, Amapiano, Bongo Flava and Genge genres.

Best pop dance recording “recognizes tracks and singles that feature up-tempo, danceable music that follows a pop arrangement,” the Recording Academy said. “Eligible Pop Dance recordings also feature strong rhythmic beats and significant electronic-based instruments with an emphasis on the vocal performance, melody and hooks.”

The best alternative jazz album category “recognizes artistic excellence in alternative jazz albums by individuals, duos and groups/ensembles, with or without vocals,” according to the Grammys website. It is defined as a “genre-blending, envelope-pushing hybrid” of music that “mixes jazz” with other genres.
