Bad Bunny once again leads the pack with an incredible 22 nominations.

Once again, it's shaping up to be a big year for Bad Bunny. The celebrated and prolific YHLQMDLG artist leads the pack in nominations at this year's Billboard Latin Music Awards.

Bad Bunny earned 22 nominations across 13 categories, with all three of his albums -- El Último Tour del Mundo, Las Que No Iban a Salir and YHLQMDLG -- getting noms in both the Top Latin Album of the Year and Latin Rhythm Album of the Year categories. He also snagged four noms in the Streaming Song of the Year and is up for the biggest categories including Artist of the Year and Songwriter of the Year.

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny faces some tough competition this year from Maluma -- who snagged 11 total nominations, including Artist of the Year -- and J Balvin with nine.
