Morgan is nominated for Best Collaboration for his work with Post Malone on the summer hit single "I Had Some Help," while Post is also nominated for eight other awards including Video Of The Year, Song Of The Year and a second nod for Best Collaboration for "Fortnight" with Taylor Swift.
The song was the lead single for Taylor's 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department, which has been at number one on the Billboard 200 for 13 weeks.
Taylor also had nods for Best Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Visual Effects and Best Art Direction; she has 10 nominations in total, the most of any artist.
