I had a feeling that the 63rd Grammys might be a repeat of the 48th Grammys(2005) in terms of General Field winners.

2005 Grammys
AOTY – How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb by U2
ROTY – Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day
SOTY – Sometimes You Can’t Make It on Your Own by U2
Best New Artist – John Legend

My realistic GF winners for the 63rd…[Read more]

If Blinding Lights, Don’t Start Now, and Circles misses SOTY, then SOTY should likely go to cardigan or empowering songs such as I Can’t Breathe, etc.

by next week or mid september

No.

By Monday, Blinding Lights will already replace Goo Goo Dolls’ Iris as #1 Song in Radio Airplay in Billboard with Blinding Lights spending 19 weeks at the top.

She will be officially #1 for 3rd straight week in Billboard 200 tomorrow.

I agree on it except for SOTY which I think it may go to somebody else.

If Fiona Apple does not get nominated in AOTY, then it’s The Weeknd vs Taylor Swift for AOTY.

The best case scenario for both The Weeknd and Taylor Swift to win in the General Field:

1st scenario: Taylor Swift wins AOTY like Arcade Fire and Beck did in the last decade while The Weeknd wins ROTY and SOTY for Blinding Lights.

2nd scenario: The Weeknd wins AOTY where Taylor and Fiona Apple(if nominated) will split votes. He also take ROTY…[Read more]

Now, we are waiting for reviews from Anthony Fantano, Spin, and the rest of the music critic reviews.

Pitchfork gave folklore album a 8/10. Still good score though. Please check the folklore album review from Pitchfork.

I don’t think Fiona Apple is winning AOTY due to lack of campaigning. The Weeknd is only getting ROTY, Pop Solo, and Best Progressive R&B Album.

Wrong! folklore has been receiving rave reviews so far. It will get AOTY if Fiona Apple gets completely snub in AOTY due to lack of doing music promotions.

No, folklore will end up winning in Best Alternative Music Album and AOTY especially Fiona Apple is not even doing any music promotions or campaigning. If Fiona Apple wants to win, she need to promote.

I would love to see folklore win AOTY, Best Folk Album, and Best Engineering Album(Non-Classical).

For me, she could get 5-10 nominations and win some:
AOTY- folklore
ROTY
SOTY
Best Alternative Music Album or Best Pop Vocal Album
Best Music Video
Best Engineering Album(Non-Classical)
Best Country Solo and Best Country Song – betty
Best Americana Roots Performance – cardigan
Best Music Film

Likely win :
Best Pop Vocal Album
SOTY
AOTY

According to Jon from Beyond ARTV, he gave folklore a score of 4.5/5. Pleas watch Beyond ARTV’s review on folklore on YouTube.

Yes, it’s possible.

But, this will be my realistic prediction:
AOTY – folklore
ROTY – Blinding Lights
SOTY – cardigan
BNA – Megan Thee Stallion

No, The Weeknd will only win ROTY. But, AOTY race is now between Fiona Apple and Taylor Swift.

The Album of the Year race is definitely over! Taylor Swift will eventually get AOTY over The Weeknd and Fiona Apple.
