According to the63rd Grammy Awardscategory rules, "this category recognizes artistic excellence in a duo, group, or collaborative vocal or instrumental pop performance. Recordings on which a group receives artist billing are eligible here, even when the vocal features only one member of the group. The entire group or collaborative performance, rather than the presence of a lead vocal performance, determines category eligibility".[2]
The award goes to the performing artists. The producer, vocal arranger, engineer and songwriter can apply for a Winners Certificate.[3]
It was one of several new categories for the annual Grammy Awards ceremony to start from 2012. It combines the previous categories forBest Pop Collaboration with Vocals,Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with VocalsandBest Pop Instrumental Performance.The restructuring of these categories was a result of the Recording Academy's wish to decrease the list of categories and awards and to eliminate the distinctions between collaborations and duo or groups.
Lady Gagahas the most wins in this category, with three.SZAandBruno Marsare the only other acts overall to win this category multiple times, each with two wins.Coldplayare the act with most nominations in this category, receiving a total of five nods, but they have yet to win in this category.
