Idk how Dawn Richards is eligible..wouldn’t that make Normani eligible? I’m gonna guess it’s because Dawn hasn’t had a huge breakout year and some could say Normani had a huge year in 2019 with Dancing with a Stranger and motivation.
Anyway idk why Tems isn’t a topic of discussion in BNA. She had a huge year. Collaborating with Drake on CLB, which could give her an AOTY nom. And featuring on essence by Wizkid with Justin Bieber on the remix. She’s bound to be nominated for both or one of those projects so why isn’t she apart of the discussion here?
Because afrobeats isn’t that popular yet but she’s definitely my best new artist this year. In a perfect world she would be in because her EPs are amazing
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 9:39 am #1204534194With confirmation that Finneas is on this year’s ballot again and no committee to block him, I think it’s safe to say he’s locked for a nomination. And while Olivia is probably still safe to win, he should still be considered a dark horse.
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 9:56 am #1204534237With Finneas in play I have a feeling this will be an Esperanza Spaulding type of year. I truly think she won that year because of vote splitting. And I think there’s definitely gonna be some vote splitting between Olivia, TKL, and Finneas.

Probably not.

Arlo Parks coming for that win! Yes, I’m a dreamer.
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 10:08 am #1204534262I feel like Finneas could be a surprise and if nominated i fear for Olivia’s chances of winning. After sweeping and winning back-to-back ROTY, i just think that Finneas will come with loads of support and probably a win.

-Finneas
-Celeste
-Saweetie(Possibles: Jimmie Allen, Ava Max, Tate McRae, Rina Sawayama, Girl in Red, Yung Bleu)
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 10:51 am #1204534317Olivia Rodrigo in Best New Artist should be a complete lock. Finneas being considered for this is a joke in itself, and I’m sure if he makes it through, voters will see that he’s been honored way too many times to be considered “new” in any situation.
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 11:34 am #1204534373Honestly, if Finneas wins it will be the biggest shit show. imagine having already 9 grammys but your 10th one is Best New Artist because you were still eligible under the rules lmao
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 11:38 am #1204534377Finneas has been awarded many Grammys already, we do not need to reward him BNA. If he should be awarded a solo Grammy, I’d prefer him winning Producer of the Year, Non-Classical instead.

October 23, 2021 at 1:46 pm #1204534607Olivia Rodrigo is winning Best New Artist whether FINNEAS receives a nomination or not. SOUR was too undeniable for voters to ignore her in that category. She’s the biggest lock of 2021. I can’t see anyone reasonably beating her. Not even a previous 6-time winner. Why is he even eligible?
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 3:32 pm #1204534826My current BNA predictions:
Gabby Barrett
Finneas
Glass Animals
The Kid Laroi
Måneskin
Polo G
Olivia Rodrigo
SaweetieAlternates – Celeste, Girl in Red, Ryan Hurd, Ava Max, Tate McRae, Niko Moon, Arlo Parks, Rina Sawayama
ReplyCopy URLOctober 23, 2021 at 5:21 pm #1204535076I think that voters will do the general field last, so those that will be nominated in BNA are going to include anyone they voted for in genre categories.

makes sense! in that case i can determine the positions of some artists:
Secured: Olivia Rodrigo and Arlo Parks
Safe: The Kid LAROI and Gabby Barrett
Possible: Maneskin and Finneas
50/50 chance: Saweetie and CelesteBubbling under: Tate McRae, Polo G, and Ava Max
