Predict 2017 Grammy Nominations

Yes, the Grammys aren't until next February, but there's only 4 months left before the eligibility period ends, and there have been a lot of major releases since last years cut off point.

Album of the Year:

Adele '25' is an obvious nominee and probably the most predictable. Lots of people are predicting David Bowie will be posthumously honoured with a nomination for 'Blackstar'. Beyoncé's 'Lemonade' is also a likely nominee as it's currently the most 'acclaimed album of the year thus far, and of course it's Bey, she's a Grammy magnet. Radiohead's new album is also a contender as it's been critically acclaimed. Rihanna could score a nomination with 'ANTI', as its the second most acclaimed album of her career and one of the years biggest releases. Drake is another contender with 'VIEWS', although the lukewarm reaction suggests otherwise. I don't see 'The Life of Pablo' getting a nom, especially after his rant about the Grammys earlier this year. Sturgill Simpson will probably be the token country nominee. If Gaga releases within the eligibility period (before October) she could also stand a chance of grabbing a nomination (if it's a return to form).

Record of the Year/Song of the Year:

Never really understood the difference so just gonna do them together. 'Hello' will obviously be nominated for one or both. '7 Years' might also snatch a nomination, unfortunately (it's garbage), but it's one of the biggest songs of the year. Justin might score with 'Love Yourself'. Despite being the biggest song of 2016 so far, I don't see 'Work' being nominated, but you never know. Beyoncé stands a chance with 'Formation'. Other picks are 'Stressed Out', 'Piece by Piece', 'One Dance', 'NO' and maybe one or two less successful rock/country songs. Obviously, the 4 months left of eligibility mean there will probably be another smash hit released (Gaga - Room In My Grammy Cabinet please).

Best New Artist:

Is Zayn eligible for this? He's the only big new artist I can think of recently. Not too sure who else, Lukas GrahamDNCEtwenty one pilots

Best Pop Vocal Album:

'25' obviously. It's basically set up to win so not much point predicting the rest. But 'Dangerous Woman' may score a nom, 'Delirium' has a chance, 'Thank You' possibly. 'Purpose' could also potentially get a nomination, although not sure it fits the genre. 'This Is Acting' might also come through. If Gaga releases within the eligibility period she's a sure fire nominee. 

Those are the only categories I really care about. Do you agree/are there any other songs/artists you think will be nominated?

The only certain thing is that Adele will be adding at least 3 Grammys to her extensive collection. Buy a bigger cabinet queen cry.gif

It's going to be a big year for pop albums with so much acclaim recently, so some artists are definitely going to feel snubbed.

I don't think it will be nominated for AOTY, but it will most certainly be nominated in the Best Urban Contemporary category (she won with Unapologetic, so scoring a nom with ANTI should be easy)

Not necessarily. I mean, Beck beat Bey, Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran for AOTY a couple of years back. This years was particularly generous to popular artists though.

They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be.
