It was obvious from the start that Zedd‘s “The Middle” with Maren Morris and Grey was going to be big — but no one knew just how big it would become. Today, it’s been announced that the collaborative single is up for Record of the Year at the 2019 Grammy Awards, as well as two other top honors.
“The Middle” is also in the running for Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance. The latter is self-explanatory, but the difference between Record of the Year and Song of the Year is worth taking note of. Record of the Year recognizes the artist’s performance as well as the overall contributors — producers, engineers, and mixers. Song of the Year recognizes the songwriters.
Zedd is up against some seriously stiff competition for Record of the Year — Cardi B, Brandi Carlile, Childish Gambino, Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper, Drake, Kendrick Lamar & SZA, and Post Malone & 21 Savage. Really, this is anyone’s game.
