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

With 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.

With 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.

Arlo Parks coming for that win! Yes, I’m a dreamer.

I 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.

Olivia 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.

Honestly, 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

Finneas 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.

Oscars FYC:

Everything Everywhere All At Once: Picture, Directing, Original Screenplay, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Editing

Olivia 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?

I 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 Celeste

Bubbling under: Tate McRae, Polo G, and Ava Max
