Well, that’s why I said “McDormand fatigue,” as she won her third Oscar last year…

Though I do think it’s notable that Colman isn’t winning any of these critics’ awards and her film is more low-key, and likely won’t be nominated outside of Adapted Screenplay. Honestly, McDormand has a better chance if her film proves to be a late-breaking…[Read more]

Current Predictions:
Gaga
Haim
Kidman
Stewart
Zegler

-Stewart is the frontrunner. Kidman and Gaga are arguably the biggest names in contention, both with flashy roles (and at least Gaga has big box office success so far). My thinking right now is that Zegler and/or Haim will benefit from being new, exciting names in top Best Picture contenders.…[Read more]

Also, huge eye roll at H.E.R. when Jazmine Sullivan was way superior. And they could’ve given Chris Stapleton some of the love they gave to Brandi….

Late to the party but what’s with the 10 nominees? Did we know this?

If the top 8 vote-getters are going to become the nominees in the GF, then we should expect the categories to be very mainstream… right? I see a lot of predictions including left-field choices that would’ve only gotten in because of the BRP. Think we should expect the main categories to more closely resemble the AMAs.

Already a lot of strong contenders for ROTY! Would not be surprised to see most of these make it in

“Drivers License” – Olivia Rodrigo
“Good Days” – SZA
“Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” – Lil Nas X
“Levitating” – Dua Lipa feat. Da Baby
“Positions” (or “POV”)– Ariana Grande
“WAP” – Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion

Unsure about Silk Sonic – a very co…[Read more]

My gutsy prediction came true!!!!!

I think the worst possible AOTY scenario is Coldplay winning…. Really love HAIM’s album but I don’t see how they get more votes than Taylor in any scenario. And I don’t think enough ppl know who Jhené Aiko is.

My gutsy prediction is “I Can’t Breathe” winning SOTY. This is H.E.R.’s SIXTH GF nomination in 2 years. The BRP could very well like her more than the full voting body, but we know she at least made the top 20 in all those instances. Could see “Cardigan” and “Everything I Wanted” taking away enough votes from “Don’t Start Now” and a large bloc…[Read more]

Think Phoebe Bridgers could upset here! She’s gotten a ton of press and critical acclaim this year and I think the double noms for “Kyoto” demonstrate passion, unlike the other contenders who are all former nominees and were largely expected to get noms.

These nominees suck so much. There’s no rhyme or reason for it and it’s gotten very stupid. Think this is my last year following the nominations so closely lol

Coldplay??? Jacob Collier?? ZERO for The Weeknd? Brittany Howard gets into the rock, alt, american roots, and r&b fields but not the GF? Post Malone doesn’t get in Pop but is hand-selected…[Read more]

Think my final predictions are going to be:

After Hours – The Weeknd
Fetch the Bolt Cutters – Fiona Apple
Folklore – Taylor Swift
Future Nostalgia – Dua Lipa
Jaime – Brittany Howard
Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial – Roddy Ricch
Ungodly Hour – Chloe x Halle
Women in Music Pt. III – HAIM

Probably will regret taking out Post Malone, but w…[Read more]

Who are potential dark horse contenders? Feel like an argument could be made for HAIM.

Current predictions:

Doja Cat
Gabby Barrett
Meghan Thee Stallion
Moses Sumney
Phoebe Bridgers
Pop Smoke
Rina Sawayama
Summer Walker

She’s not that far off from Bridger’s sound, but do we know if Clairo is eligible? Could sneak in if so.

ROTY
“Blinding Lights” – The Weeknd
“The Box” – Roddy Ricch
“Circles” – Post Malone
“Don’t Start Now” – Dua Lipa
“Lockdown” – Anderson .Paak
“Rain on Me” – Lady Gaga feat. Ariana Grande
“Savage” – Meghan Thee Stallion
“Say So” – Doja Cat

-What are the arguments for “The Box” vs “Rockstar?” The former is a better song IMO and the bigger hit, but I…[Read more]

A month out and these are probably my final predictions:

After Hours – The Weeknd
Fetch the Bolt Cutters – Fiona Apple
Folklore – Taylor Swift
Future Nostalgia – Dua Lipa
Hollywood’s Bleeding – Post Malone
Jaime – Brittany Howard
Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial – Roddy Ricch
Ungodly Hour – Chloe x Halle

Howard could totally miss, but…[Read more]

This is my near-exact list of predictions for AOTY, except I have Post Malone instead of The Chicks.

For ROTY, I’m pretty certain these 6 songs will stay in my predictions until the end (and the first 3 will also make it into SOTY):

-“Blinding Lights”
-“Circles”
-“Don’t Start Now”

-“The Box”
-“Savage”
-“Say So”

For the last two spots in…[Read more]

I’m conflicted on Taylor Swift. This album release did feel like a notable event. The acclaim is huge and it has won over many of her critics. It was also pure Grammy bait from the start — The National are recent winners and the BRP clearly has a hard-on for Bon Iver. Taylor also brings a lot of money to the industry and this album will be a big…[Read more]

Actually came here to post basically what Gucci has been saying! lol

Much can happen before nominations are announced on November 20th — cough, the presidential election!! — but I really think the BRP is going to go out of its way to ensure the winners are not all white.

Y’all forget that The Grammys are basically a PR stunt for the music…[Read more]
