This year is looking weak so far for rap ala 2019….
if that’s the case I hope we get a Tyler, the Creator winner. I love Nas but Freddie Gibbs served with his album. I hope someone will release a la Jay Z or Travis Scott. The latter is due for some love with the Grammys.
Brockhampton and clipping dropped some of the best rap albums of the eligibility period. I think currently Megan is the frontrunner in Rap Album.

Best Rap Album (possible strongest contenders so far)
– CB2 – Cardi B
– Man On the Moon III: The Chosen – Kid Cudi
– Montero – Lil Nas X
– Good News – Megan Thee Stallion
– Soul Fly – Rod Wave
– Utopia – Travis ScottI would like to see Brockhampton nominated but it’s kind of unlikely since none of their previous albums got a nomination.

Arlo Parks - Collapsed In SunbeamsOther contenders for Rap Album:
– Slowthai – “TYRON”
– Big Sean – “Detroit 2”
– Brockhampton – “Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine”
– Playboi Carti – “Whole Lotta Red”
– Drake – “Certified Lover Boy”
– Ghetts – “Conflict Of Interest”* Ghetts’ album currently remains one of the top 2021 albums in critical reception (95 in metacritic) and features lots of namecheck artists but I’m not sure how much the Grammys will acknowledge British rappers. This also affects Slowthai.
* Playboi Carti’s album got positive reviews too and it topped The Billboard 200.ReplyCopy URLFYC | Best music of 2021 so far:

Didn’t Lil Nas X say that he will submit Montero to pop or did he mean the song only?
ReplyCopy URLMontero will go to Pop just like the 7 EP. Nas may submit something in Melodic Rap like Panini last time, but he’s in the exact same Pop boat as Post Malone.
Plus, I’m very sure Big Sean will receive a filler Best Rap Album nomination.

Record of the Year: Hit Different by SZA ft. Pharrell Williams & co.
Song of the Year: Good Days by SZA ft. Jacob CollierMegan just came off of 3 Grammy wins, they won’t snub her here for new acts when it’s clear that they very much like her. I sense residual love, especially with Good News proving to be quite stable.
Cardi has had 2 hits, one of them being undeniably massive with a political statement and the other being more recent.
