De­spite an en­cour­ag­ing wave of sub­mis­sions from Trinidad and To­ba­go and the wider Caribbean, no T&T artiste has se­cured a nom­i­na­tion for the 2025 Gram­my Awards.

The of­fi­cial nom­i­nee list, re­leased Fri­day by the Record­ing Acad­e­my, con­firms that none of the so­ca or oth­er en­tries sub­mit­ted for con­sid­er­a­tion ad­vanced to the fi­nal bal­lot.

The out­come comes af­ter a record num­ber of so­ca cre­atives and oth­ers threw their hats in­to the Gram­my ring this year, seek­ing recog­ni­tion pri­mar­i­ly across the cat­e­gories of Best Glob­al Mu­sic Per­for­mance, Best Glob­al Mu­sic Al­bum, and Best African Mu­sic Per­for­mance.
