She was 100000% #1 most voted in every R&B category, and above Jhene in AOTY’s top 20. She must’ve really pissed someone off on the Grammy committee.

This will also be the first year since 2012 where the SoulTrain AOTY winner isn’t nominated in Grammys’ AOTY.

– folklore will not win AOTY then lose BPVA to Dua, a fellow AOTY nominee. If Dua wins BPVA she’s winning AOTY over Taylor, same in reverse.
– Circles is safely non-competetive imo. We are all so focused on BL missing everything, that we are forgetting Circles still missed Pop Solo’s top 6 vote-getters. It just managed to make Top 20 in GF and…[Read more]

The rest of the academy still made her Top 20 in both categories. You’re acting like she’s a committee pick…

everything i wanted made it into Pop Solo with a straight vote. It is unfounded to think people will not want her to sweep again.

Black Parade is going to get more love than Savage Remix in GF. Rockstar & Savage will split votes.

Ignoring Bey, Billie is UNDOUBTEDLY top 2.How anyone is doubting her when she just swept the entire GF last year is beyond me.
And don’t say it’s “they don’t want her to sweep 2 years in a row” because if they didn’t want that, she wouldn’t have…[Read more]

This has to be drugs. I don’t see how anyone has Savage Remix even top 4 to win ROTY. Top 2 is very clearly Dua & Billie.

Rooting for Justin for this cycle. He won me over with “Holy”.

Really annoying that benny blanco has an undeserved artist credit on “lonely”. Would’ve been an easy Pop Solo nomination.

Pretty sure they’re counting last year’s nominations, plus Black Parade is on the deluxe edition of The Gift. The 9 nominations would be:

1. Pop Vocal Album (The Gift)

2. Pop Solo Performance (Spirit)

3. Song for Visual Media (Spirit)

4. Record of the Year (Black Parade)

5. Song of the Year (Black Parade)

6. R&B Performance (Black…[Read more]

Not unlikely in Pop at all. 2019 had TWO ties in the Pop field. A normal 6-person tie in Pop Vocal, and a wild 7-person tie in Pop Duo/Group.

I know Bieber is hated, and I definitely agree he didn’t deserve a Pop Solo nomination for that atrocious song, but the nomination is perfectly legit.

Nope! And had it been him getting a boatload of nominations while another big artist is shut out, he would’ve been silent thanking the Academy for “this great honour”…

The Weeknd still would’ve been snubbed in Progressive R&B Album by the way. Prior to the submission confirmation of Pop Vocal, I and a couple other users had noted how Urban/Urban AC Radio did NOT support this era in the slightest. Urban/Urban AC Radio support is vital to a star of The Weeknd’s caliber. After Hours was his least successful com…[Read more]

Everyone knew Blinding Lights was in Pop. Can’t Feel My Face (which was nominated), Starboy, and I Feel It Coming were all submitted to Pop. You can make a point for there being confusion for the album, but there’s no excuse for Blinding Lights.

Blinding Lights just missed. Simple as that. It couldn’t even come up top 6 in Pop Solo. Even Yummy…[Read more]

Chilombo is literally higher than Future Nostalgia on BB200 YE. It debuted with over 140M streams and 150K units, and is the most streamed 2020 female album in the US. It is mainstream.

It’s 4 vs. 4.

Sorry, but The Weeknd did NOT miss Pop Solo because of his “statement” about black stars competing in the Pop category. Doja Cat (while problematic herself) is nominated this year. Lizzo fucking won last year with a pop-rap hybrid.

“Blinding Lights” is arguably the most “white” hit song of the past 5 years. It is incredibly safe.

I think two…[Read more]

Me and my good sis @babygirl #3 and #2 on the leaderboard. We love to see it! 

My theory was correct, Alphabet Advantage is 100% real in the Pop Field.

The Weeknd was at the complete bottom of every category alphabetically.

– Post Malone in 3/3 of the GF

– The Weeknd ZERO nominations

– Bey most nominated artist

Please don’t wake me up, because this is the best dream ever!

THE WEEKND IS FUCKING OVER!!!

Feeling like AOTY is going to be the messiest its been in years.

I know it happens every year, but I’m REALLY feeling a lot of big snubs and WTF nominations, in what seems to be a boring AOTY category.

The prediction center closed so early… didn’t even get the chance to place my double bets and revise my predictions.

I’m unconfident in the country categories. Kane Brown has won male artist for the past 2 years in a row, including last year over Combs, but Combs has just had an amazing year, not to mention Wallen who is also doing…[Read more]
