Background
In March 2024, the Latin Recording Academy announced several changes for different categories:
Category changes
- The linguistic requirement for a recording to be eligible is now 60% of its content in Spanish, Portuguese, or in languages, dialects or idiomatic expressions recognized in Ibero-America. Previously, the requirement was only 51%.
- Two new categories were introduced â Best Latin Electronic Music Performance (as a part of the new Electronic Music Field) and Best Contemporary Mexican Music Album.
- The category for Best MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira) Album was renamed into Best MAPB (Música Afro Portuguesa-Brasileira) Album.
- In order to be eligible for the Best Singer-Songwriter Song, the song must be new and both composed and performed 100% by the singer-songwriter(s).
- The duration for the eligible videos for the category for Best Long Form Music Video was reduced from 20 minutes to 12.
- New rules were added regarding the number of nominations, which will be based on the number of entries per category:
- "If a category receives between 25 and 39 entries, only three recordings will receive nominations in that year. Should there be fewer than 25 entries in a category, that category will immediately go on hiatus for the current year and entries will be screened into the next most logical category. If a category receives fewer than 25 entries for three consecutive years, the category will be discontinued, and submissions will be entered in the next most appropriate category."
