CMA Awards Nominations Led by Morgan Wallen… Who ‘Had Some Help’ From Post Malone and Their Song of the Summer

2024 CMA Awards noms are led by Morgan Wallen with seven; four are for his Post Malone collaboration. Cody Johnson and Chris Stapleton have five each.

Seven artists or producer-writers picked up three nominations each: singers Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Megan Maroney and Kacey Musgraves, along with Louis Bell, Charlie Handsome and Hoskins, all three of whom co-produced “I Had Some Help” and also are among the credited writers on the tune. Bryan’s paucity of nominations at the CMA, ACM and CMT awards shows, respectively, is in contrast with the general public belief that he has been the most popular country artist of the past few years apart from Wallen. The CMAs issued a long list of artists, producers, writers and engineers who are nominated for the first time this year, including Andrew Baylis, Louis Bell, Brock Berryhill, Tom Bukovac, Will Bundy, Sean Cook, Benjy Davis, Shawn Everett, Riley Green, Kevin “Thrasher” Gruft, Kat Higgins, Hoskins, Jeff Johnson, Noah Kahan, Ella Langley, Ryan Larkins, Raul Lopez, Josh Phillips, Post Malone, Nevin Sastry, Shaboozey, Ernest Keith Smith, Nate Smith, Konrad Snyder, Mitchell Tenpenny, The Red Clay Strays, Zach Top, Chris Villa, Chandler Paul Walters and Bailey Zimmerman.
