r/grammys

Now, I will preface this by saying that I am not an Ella Langley fan and am not glazing and stanning; I am considering genuine possibilities. Ella has been achieving massive success, so much so that the Grammys changed their rules, pretty much just for her. She seems like a really strong contender for BNA and with the abundance of pop releases this Grammy season, it’s possible for her works to sneak through to the SOTY, ROTY, and AOTY categories. I don’t know, this was just a random thought that I had and I wanted to know what you guys thought about it.

Coming from the PC music landscape and venturing her way into a Tumblr-esque Electronic Rock album, Slayyyter has seen unprecedented success this year with her latest album WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA.

Not only does she have a TikTok hit, her popularity has definitely surged after her Coachella performance, her album is getting 1.4M daily on spotify, almost half of it's initial debut streams 3 months after release. She has gone from 1.5M to 8M monthly listeners as well

My hopes are Best New Artist & Best Dance/Electronic Album/Recording. It would be fitting to give DANCE... best Dance recording.

What are your thoughts?

With the hype behind Katseye still rolling I honestly believe that they’ll get nominated in best pop duo or best dance recording.

Specifically pop duo for iconic by mistake and best dance pop for pinky up

Or I’m being delusional

It’s insane that she’s never won it and it’d be an insane story for her finally to win at 67. But most importantly, this album deserves it on quality alone. It’s her best album in over two decades. It’s more exciting to me than Olivia’s album. She truly deserves it.

Look I don't care if this gets downvotes or anything reddit isn't my life. I am just shocked that people actually believe Olivia is bigger than BTS ? Taylor swift, Justin Bieber on a worldwide level I agree. The general public knows them by heart, their popularity has reached each and every corner of the globe but I just had an argument about Olivia fans I guess who believes she is more big/loved (English is my 3/4th language, I don't know what word to use properly here) than BTS. Sorry but no she was trending on TikTok with driver song 1 time but that's it.

Per ATRL

"I'm absolutely floored. Motha really did that. Probably her best album since American Life to be honest. It's a bloody masterpiece. Fragile had me having a nervous breakdown it really hit home for me. For me this album is more Erotica 2.0 than Confessions II. The later half of the record really goes in an incredible musical direction. Very ROL. She really deserves all the accolades. The Grammys better give it up to her because her and Stuart created something truly special."

"Everything is everything I wanted to hear from her in years 🔥😭😍"

"The whole album is a collapse and three quarters whew mamadonna you did it"

"The production is RICH, really amazing! its such a rewarding moment after several messily mixed albums"

"Bring Your Love makes total sense as a single. You can call it generic but all the other songs are too personal or way too "experimental" for the radio. Only Bizarre would work."

"Danceteria should've been the lead single!"

"OMFG , BIZARRE IS OUT OF THIS PLANET , IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!!!"

"This is giving 85 on Metacritic babes"

"Oh, Warner, the label you are to mother Madonna…. I LOVE how dark and weird she gets in the second half of the album, it's the best part for me. lol. Now THIS is the Madonna I fell in love with and the Madonna that I've always loved. We did it, girls, no more pretending she released a good album. This is VERY VERY good."

"not trying to jump the gun... but this is way more consistent for me than COADF1 is"

"The fact that mother is almost 70 years old and she's still able to deliver such a strong body of work for the girlies who love to dance is so BITCH"

"is this album actually good or is it Madonna fans creaming the dancefloor? - It's actually good, the production is slick and pack an actual punch that I didn't see in the singles, even Love Sensation sounds SO MUCH PUNCHIER and atmospheric, and this is coming from a Little Monster who didn't really like her last 3 albums."

"Pieces of ROL, erotica, American life, confessions I, music without rehashing old ideas. This album is actually a masterpiece. The cool down on the last quarter has such intricate production. LES girl actually made me cry, idk if she's ever sounded quite like this on a track? School is impressive instant's cunty older sister. I'm blown away completely."

My current list:

• Lady Gaga
• Justin Bieber
• Kendrick Lamar
• Sabrina Carpenter
• Olivia Rodrigo

I'll admit im not fully versed on the entire electronic space, but here's a few artists who I hope get nominated

Slayyyter - WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA
Kim Petras - DETOUR
Underscores - U
FKA twigs - EUSEXUA Afterglow

Who else do you think will have a good chance?

I’d like to start this off with this is what I predict will be nominated and win not what I necessarily want to win. If I don’t predict an album as getting a nom it does not mean I dislike it, just means I don’t predict it to be nominated.

AOTY

1. LUX- Rosalia ( maybe a unpopular opinion but this album performed the best critically and did well commercially alongside the tour)

2. 1. YSPSFAGSIL- Olivia Rodrigo ( definitely a top contender)

3. AM I THE DRAMA? - Cardi B ( also a unpopular opinion but did super well commercially and I think it’s unrealistic to assume all the noms will be pop)

4. THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE - RAYE ( although not the biggest here commercially or critically WIMH did well as a hit single and the album created buzz)

5. Dandelion- Ella Langley ( album performed well and Choosin’ Texas performed very well on the charts and overall a succesful country album)

6. The Art of Loving - Olivia Dean ( I could one hundred percent see this winning it seems to be the “ safest” option carried with critical acclaim commercial success and a lead single )

7. The Romantic - Bruno Mars ( Huge name. Easy nom definitely will not win. )

8. The Great Divide - Noah Kahan ( Maybe a bit obscure pick but an overall good album and adds diversity to the list)

Maybes:

TLOASG- Taylor Swift ( it’s Taylor so could definitely get her a nom but one of her weakest albums)

Petal- Ariana Grande ( Could one hundred percent see this nominated but it’s way to early to even predict it as a nominee)

AIRIRANG- BTS ( Although I don’t think this will be nominated it was very successful and might score a nom but didn’t create much buzz outside the fandom )

Probably not:

Visitor- Sienna Spiro ( I see a lot of potential in this album but unfortunately she’s not popular enough to likely score a nom)

Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally- Harry Styles ( very weak album carried by his fanbase but a possible nom)

Give thoughts,

1. the cure/drop dead (depends on submission) - Olivia Rodrigo
2. The Fate of Ophelia - Taylor Swift
3. Risk It All/I Just Might (depends on submission) - Bruno Mars
4. So Easy (To Fall In Love) - Olivia Dean
5. Choosin' Texas - Ella Langley
6. Where Is My Husband? - RAYE
7. Wildcard
8. Wildcard

Wildcards:

aperture - Harry Styles

Berghain (feat. Björk & Yves Tumor) - Rosalía

Dracula (JENNIE Remix) - Tame Impala

hate that i made you love me - Ariana Grande

stateside - Zara Larsson & PinkPantheress

The Great Divide - Noah Kahan

Swim - BTS

Iconic By Mistake - KATSEYE, ILLIT & Le Sserafim

Probably Drake if he submits?

Okay, so Olivia Rodrigo’s album? It’s seriously good.

I know music hits different for everyone, but hers just has everything. The writing’s sharp, the songs are catchy as hell, and there’s not a single skip. It’s got the big radio hits, but also those quiet tracks that just wreck you in the best way.

But honestly? What I love most is how it feels. You put it on and suddenly you’re 17 again, falling in love, getting your heart broken, dancing in your room. It makes you feel all the messy, happy, sad stuff and isn’t that the whole point of music?

So yeah. AOTY-worthy? 100%. Olivia really did her thing with this one. THE CURE - soty.

it's just for me. We have different taste anyway.

1. petal, Ariana Grande
2. LUX, Rosailia
3. you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, Olivia Rodrigo
4. The Art of Loving, Olivia Dean
5. Middle of Nowhere - Kacey Musgraves
6. The Life of A Showgirl, Taylor Swift
7. This Music May Contain Hope - RAYE
