The GRAMMYs' newly announced award for Best Song For Social Change differs significantly from the other GRAMMY Award categories announced earlier this year and debuting at the upcoming 2023 GRAMMYs, officially known as the 65th GRAMMY Awards. Rather than a traditional GRAMMY Award, the Best Song For Social Change award is a Special Merit Award.
