i’ve seen like 4 articles of grammy predictions and many of those writers would like to see doja pick up a victory, it really sucks that she’ll most likely go home empty handed 😭

I forget the website, but I saw one predicting Bieber to sweep the big 3 and Baby Keem win BNA. That’s the saddest I’ve seen so far

Olivia is not sweeping the Big 4. Imagine if Nas upsets in Rap Album over Kanye. I would love to see it!

These predictions are so.. off.

They confirm what I’ve been suspecting for a while, L4S winning is gonna be a huge shocker to most people outside GoldDerby.

I see her being local to Pop Wins & then winning BNA. I feel like they think she’s sweeping based on what happened with Billie during her debut era but it’s not the same since Olivia is going against multiple Grammy favorites & vets. She can easily only end up with 1-3 GRAMMY(s)

New York Times
(They did their predictions by saying how they’d spend $100 on each ROTY nominee and if one nominee got majority, I gave them a full point. Whereas, there was one critics who was torn between HTE, Freedom and LTDO so I divided that point 3 ways.
Also sidenote but this video is really funny and I recommend watching.)

(4 critics)
Record Of The Year
drivers license: 2.5
Montero: 0.5
Freedom: 0.33
Happier Than Ever: 0.33
Leave The Door Open: 0.33

b/c they’ll always go w the biggest and acclaimed album, 99% of them didn’t even predict L4S AOTY nom while some of the GD members here did, goes to show how mainstream their logics are
