Oscars 2022: full list of nominees

The Academy has officially spoken.
After another year of unforgettable blockbuster movies, the list of nominations for the 94th Academy Awards is officially here—and we have all of the details about who could be accepting the statues for one of Hollywood’s biggest nights.
On Feb. 8, actors Tracee Ellis Ross and Leslie Jordan were on hand to announce this year’s lucky list of recipients, their (highly entertaining!) broadcast airing live from several of the Academy’s social media platforms.
As a refresher, a few of last year’s winners made history, including Daniel Kaluuya, who became the seventh-youngest winner of an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor thanks to his role in Judas and the Black Messiah, and Anthony Hopkins—the then-83-year-old becoming the eldest to hold the trophy with his Best Actor win for his role in The Father.
So, it’s no wonder that fans have been on the edge of their seats for the list of this year’s stars and movies that left us wanting more throughout 2021.
For this year’s big night, the Oscars will take center stage at their home at Hollywood’s Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 27. Viewers can tune in to the ceremony on ABC starting at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

Out Now: Tymain Robbins Releases Album ‘Fashionably Late’

North Carolina emcee and creative Tymain Robbins reveals his newest album ‘Fashionably Late’ September 29th which is a testament and journey for him to showcase not only his story but also his amazing talent in curating music. The main story of my upcoming album revolves around self-discovery and personal growth. Each track is a chapter in this narrative, with themes of overcoming, determination, and finding one’s true purpose. Fans of artists like J. Cole, Nas, and Jay-Z should find solace in Tymain Robbins.
“I also watched this Russ interview where he quoted something from John Mayor. He mentioned, “if you wait too long to drop your own songs you’re late to your own party”. That saying really stuck with me,” Tymain said. He continued with, “I’m an artist who has held on to years of music trying to create the perfect project, and it’s caused me to not drop much. The interview made me realize that during this time I’ve forced myself to be late to my accomplishments, celebrations, current fans enjoying new music, and new fans discovering me. So, I decided that if I’m late to my party then I at least need to arrive in fashion.”
The overall LP is based on a diverse amount of topics coming from the words of Tymain himself. The tracks that are the focus on this project are “Fashionably Late,” “Denim Tears,” and “Endless Possibilities.” “Fashionably Late” is about coming back after a hiatus and being better than ever due to the amount of work you put in over the off-season. “Denim Tears” plays on the title of the project, is filled with confidence and this song is about the embodiment of everything in your genes. “Endless Possibilities” is about overcoming adversity and finding strength within ourselves. It’s one of those, “if I can do it, so can you” records.
His recent Rolls Royce activation event is an example of how he extends his creativity to outside the studio. The Rolls Royce listening event was inspired by the luxurious and sophisticated nature of the album. “I wanted the event to match the grandeur of the music and provide fans with a unique and memorable experience,” he said. “The Rolls Royce symbolizes both success and class, which aligns with the album’s themes of ambition and self-improvement. I really just wanted to do something different that I haven’t seen before.”
