We got AOTY, BPVA and SOTY right last year. Billie was in second for ROTY and and Lizzo second in BPSP.

Lemme guess, OTR was ROTY top choice as the bigger hit. I see the ROTY line-up and I think Savage could also win, but then again DSN seems a shoe-in.

She has two perfomances in a French Music Award Show and a Spanish Music Show on Dec.5th. The perfomances will be uploaded, but it think the BBWiM will be more relevant promo slot for the Grammys.

I’ve enjoyed more studio54 than folklore doc. Being honest, the folklore doc didn’t reveal anything surprising about the songwriting, and at some points the conversation between them was awkward. A mediator or an interviewer would be nice. I’m not sure that would change someone’s vote. I liked the exile performance tho.

I certainly think it tends to matter on what you prefer. Grammy voters responded really well to Taylor’s Grammys museum performance in 2015. This is like a socially distanced version of that. Telling the stories of all the songs but this time doing it remotely and with her collaborators. I’d say Dua’s is a better “show” but she’s been giving us that all year, it really didn’t change the dynamics of the album and how people (Grammy voters) view it. I’d say the folklore Disney+ special gave us more insight on the creative process which I think is something Grammy voters especially would like.

For the songwriting process, Dua Lipa will be featured on Song Exploder on Netflix, December 15th, it will be about the creation of the song Love Again.

Taylor and Dua’s concerts are impossible to compare. One is a show a phenomenal disco spectacle meant to entertain and one is a studio session a stripped back acoustic set meant for you to appreciate the stories each song tells. I loved both, I had different feelings while watching both. These women are both talented in their own way. Like someone else said, it all depends on what you like.

Congratulations Taylor Swift on 6 Grammy Nominations

Yeah, and she also did the Song Exploder podcast to break down the creative process behind Levitating around a month ago.

Imo, dua can easily pull off a sweep. I had this inkling before but I’m more convinced now after watching her online concert. She snapped.

I think she can’t pull a sweep because she isn’t winning pop duo/group performance

I saw many YouTubers Grammy reactions and predictions and many lowered down the winners to Taylor and Dua in AOTY. Most of them think Dua will win ROTY and BPSP and the others will go to Taylor. Also, for SOTY some say H.E.R is possible.

Future Nostalgia is the superior pop album in that AOTY lineup, that’s why people think it deserves to win.
