The BRIT Awards has unveiled its full list of nominations for 2022. As announced last month, the upcoming awards is gender-neutral, having scrapped its usual female and male categories.

The list is led by Adele, who finally dropped her studio album 30 this year. The musician is in the running for the Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop/R&B categories. Other standouts include Billie Eilish and Doja Cat, each nominated for Best International Artist, as well as Griff and Joy Crookes for Best New Artist.
