This year the recording academy announced the nominations on a video that was put up on the Latin Grammy site with announcements made by a wide array of artists and fans.

Gabriel Abaroa Jr., president of the Latin Recording Academy, said the nominations reflected the “dynamic and vibrant worldwide Latin community of artists, producers, engineers and songwriters.”
