I imagine Ariana is getting Katy Perry style bucks for this. However I don’t see her staying like Katy has stayed. I could see this very much being a one off thing for Ari.

Olivia is the current front-runner for sure. And that’s helped by the fact that we don’t see anyone huge blasting onto the scene right now that could take it from her.

Silk Sonic sweeps the 3 main field categories, Olivia Rodrigo wins BNA. I see Megan, Billie, Cardi, Ariana, Taylor, SZA, Lana, H.E.R., Bad Bunny, Lil Nas X, St. Vincent, and Foo Fighters getting noms in the main categories along with the first 2 acts that I see sweeping the general field. Drivers License has a chance with SOTY but I see Leave The…[Read more]

Lil Nas X is one of the first major examples of an actual “stan” getting famous and I imagine MANY more will come after him and get called out for similar things. He’s been able to dodge most of this without addressing it and that’s simply because the majority of the gp simply doesn’t care what he did on twitter when he was a young teen whether…[Read more]

I see this being Taylor’s award to lose. 2 big albums, general acclaim and she’s coming off of a huge Grammys high. I expect this to go to her. Ariana is the only one I could see upsetting her win but positions wasn’t close to folklore in success or acclaim and success wise is more on par with evermore Taylor’s weaker sister album but is still…[Read more]

I’m thinking that BTR will be re-recorded. Taylor wants to own all of her work even if some of it is problematic. The GP is literally eating the song up on TikTok right now. It’s just one of the many misogynistic hits of the 2000s/early 10’s. If she doesn’t want to I support her, if she does I support her. It all frankly doesn’t matter. I also see…[Read more]

evermore is also an essential lock for BPVA. I’d say Bieber is also locked because of foreseeable circumstances involving Fraudy Braun. But yeah Ariana is the only true lock for every category. Unless Billie comes along and ruins everything for her again (and that seems to be happening.)

if she does CDs, playlisting and radio deals she’s debuting at #1.

These are my current picks. However I have a feeling the pop picks won’t be as conventional this year. Only a 2 locks per category in my eyes. Notable here is that Ariana and Justin get into all of the pop categories. And I suspect Ariana is the frontrunner in all 3. Even though evermore could easily beat positions. drivers license is also a…[Read more]

I think willow is just about done. Her team is likely gearing up to push a Fearless (Taylor’s Version) single. They’ve registered songs onto Shazam for her too. Her team sees the potential chart wise right now because the points are low. All she needs is CDs and good playlisting to go #1 right now.

Taylor still has a long career left ahead of her and if we think about it there’s a lot of avenues she can go down to get more Grammys. Taylor is a songwriter and will probably work with other artists on projects more and more as she ages. Also she could write a book and record it to win a Spoken Word Grammy, she could also write for another…[Read more]

I really doubt it tbh. Only way I could see it working is if it highlighted new artist songs? Like maybe there’ll be category like Best New Artist Song or sumn. But that’s also not a great idea.

AOTY: Future Nostalgia
SOTY: everything I wanted
ROTY: Savage Remix

BNA: Phoebe Bridgers

BPVA:  folklore
BPSP: Don’t Start Now or everything I wanted
Pop Duo/Group: exile

1. folklore

EASILY her best Album of the Year winner and is pretty much tied with Red for best overall. I think this album is cohesive, filler-less, and has the most thought out vision which are just some of the reasons why this is her best AOTY win.

2. 1989

While I definitely prefer Fearless to this album in my personal opinion, objectively…[Read more]

I wonder what Taylor Swift’s next move is after these re-recordings. I think she’ll be focused on these re-recordings until early 2022 but I don’t see her wasting much time after that. I am thinking there’s 2 avenues she can go down. She can either go deeper into alternative and take out the more pop/folk aspects or she can do a U-turn and come…[Read more]

positions (song & album) will very easily make it into the pop field noms with motive also probably getting into pop duo/group. evermore will have zero issues getting into BPVA and willow could probably get into BPSP. I think Justin also makes it as long as 2021’s pop musical landscape stays dry. If Changes/Yummy could get into the pop field (by…[Read more]

Idk if we can learn anything from this. Another weird night that will probably be followed up by a conventional sweep that yet again changes our perspective on the Grammys. I think the best thing to take from this is that at the end of the day predictions and betting odds are really just a loud echo chamber where you’re lucky if you’re right or if…[Read more]

willow is beating the crap out of cardigan on radio and has better playlist placements. It’s still improving on radio and I suspect it’ll pass cardigan in the coming months. It is a catchier and popier song even if it’s not even close to cardigan in quality. I think it’s a real contender for Grammy noms next year. At least pop solo.

They changed the lineup last time around, it’s normal. I don’t think these lists are meant to be spread because they aren’t set in stone.

I don’t think so. Bon Iver won’t be there to collect the trophy and Taylor is likely winning multiple others so announcing that category wouldn’t make any sense.
