Beyoncé, Shaboozey and Kane Brown are making waves in the country music genre, nabbing several 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards nominations.

Queen Bey has been nominated for the People’s Artist of 2023, the Female Artist of 2023 and the Social Country Star of 2023, the PCCAs announced on Wednesday, according to E! News.
