Building on an already impressive comeback year, Chris Brown dominated the nominations for the 2011 Soul Train Awards.
Nominations for the third annual Soul Train Awards were announced today (October 20) and the platinum-selling R&B singer leads with five nominations for Best Male R&B/Soul Artist, Song of the Year, Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Best Dance Performance.
R&B superstar Beyoncѐ will pose a formidable threat to Brown’s chances of bringing home the Album of the Year Award. Bey’s chart-topping 4 album is up for Album of the Year honors, while she’ll also compete for Record of the Year, Best Female R&B/Soul Artist and Best Dance Performance. Kanye West is also up for four nominations in three categories, while artists Kelly Rowland, Adele, Marsha Ambrosius and Miguel each trail with three nominations.
When it comes to recognizing musical talents of yesteryear, Soul Train will honor the long careers and musical influences of R&B group Earth, Wind and Fire and singer Gladys Knight with this year’s Legend Award.
