Two albums recorded at George Maloof’s music studio in the Palms have received Grammy Award nominations in three categories for music superstars Jamie Foxx and Eminem.

Their nominations included Best Contemporary R&B album for Intuition by Jamie, and Eminem’s Beautiful was hailed for Best Rap Solo Performance, while Relapse is up for Best Rap Album.

Both artists worked on the sessions at the recording studio, which already has past Grammy wins with Maroon 5, Tony Bennett and Mary J. Blige.
