At the 2025 Creative Arts Emmys held last weekend (September 7 and 8), Christopher Lennertz won the award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for his song “Let’s Put the Christ Back in Christmas” from The Boys. He came out ahead of nominees Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez for “The Ballad of the Witches’ Road” (Agatha All Along); Nicholas Britell and Tony Gilroy for “We Are the Ghor (Planetary Anthem)” (Andor); Adam Sandler and Dan Bulla for “Adam Sandler’s Song: 50 Years” (SNL50: The Anniversary Special); and Sean Douglas, Kristen Wiig, and Josh Greenbaum for “Harper and Will Go West” (Will & Harper). The honor marks Lennertz’s first Emmy win and his third overall nomination.
Lennertz’s award should not be mistaken for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series (Original Dramatic Score), which went to Theodore Shapiro for Severance, or Outstanding Music Composition for a Limited or Anthology Series, Movie, or Special (Original Dramatic Score), which was awarded to Mick Giacchino for The Penguin.
A wide range of musicians earned Emmy nominations this year, including Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kamasi Washington, Caroline Shaw, Hamilton Leithauser, Mark Ronson, Hans Zimmer, Devo co-founder Mark Mothersbaugh, and the Roots’ Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson. Last week, Lamar picked up his second Emmy, winning the Creative Emmy for Outstanding Music Direction for The Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show Starring Kendrick Lamar, which was nominated for seven awards.
