Drake’s “Hotline Bling” might have missed out on a Grammy nomination, but if it’s any consolation for the OVO camp, it’s in contention for single of the year at the 2016 JUNO Awards.
After racking up seven Grammy nominations, The Weeknd tops this year’s nominee count with six nods, including best single, best album, best R&B/soul album, artist of the year, songwriter of the year and the fan choice award.
Both Drake and Justin Bieber had a strong showing as well, earning five nominations each, while newcomers Alessia Cara and Shawn Mendes trailed not far behind with four each.
Nominees for rap recording of the year include BadBadNotGood, Drake, Kardinal Offishall, k-os, and SonReal, while dance recording of the year recognized A-Trak, Autoerotique & Max Styler, Kaytranada, Keys N Krates, and Sleepy Tom (feat. Diplo).
Alessia Cara, Bryan Adams, Dean Brody, Shawn Mendes, and The Weeknd will all perform during the JUNOs broadcast on April 3rd.
