Grammy-tastic!

Last night, amid goofy, sexually tense intergenerational banter between co-hosts LL Cool J and Taylor Swift, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States announced the nominees for its 54th Grammy Awards, airing Sunday, February 10, on CBS.

Genre-bending R&B guy Frank Ocean scored with six nods. So did Fun., Jay-Z, Mumford & Sons, and Kanye West. Meanwhile, the Black Keys and Miguel grabbed five nominations. Even Miami rap stars like the Bawse Ricky Ross and Flo Rida got named.

Check the cut for Grammy Awards 2013 nominees.
