Grammy Insider:Lady Gaga & more Drop Singles to Qualify for 2017 Nomination

[Bazaar 5,752]

"The list of likely award-contender albums released in September has been a short one, with Usher being the only major Grammy-bait act announcing an album (Hard II Love) so far this month. But big-name singles have suddenly flooded the market, with the Sept. 9 date alone bringing Lady Gaga’s “Perfect Illusion,”Celine Dion’s “Recovering,” Sia and Kendrick Lamar’s “The Greatest” and Green Day’s “Revolution Radio,” as well as new tracks from OneRepublic, Kings of Leon, Peter Gabriel and Norah Jones. Sting’s freshly released return to rock, “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You,” is also, like most of these other singles, fronting a fall album that won’t be eligible until the 2018 awards.

If the September album glut has moved to an October and November glut, it actually has helped albums that have multiyear livelihoods. It certainly worked for Taylor Swift’s 1989, which scored three nominations in 2015 (for its lead single “Shake It Off”) and seven in 2016 (for the album and two other singles). Theoretically, if a superstar has a late-summer single and an autumn album, they can be in the Grammy mix for two consecutive years."

Do you think that's why Gaga chose October as the release date for Joanne? and didn't wait till late-Nov or Dec? 

Look at Gaga running for those Grammy nominations

I like how they think of Gaga when they are talking about Grammys. Some artists just don't come up to our minds at all when we talk about Grammys. Taylor swift was not the first one to use advantage of this strategy though.

Applause was supposed to qualify for the 2014 Grammys but it wasn't nominated and ARTPOP and the rest of its singles for the 2015 Grammys. Same goes to Katy Perry's Roar (2014) and Prism (2015).

I didn't mean her actually, I think she stands a chance at winning. I meant others.

Who cares, she'd get to walk the carpet and perform twice

Can anyone pm the ripped audio of PI from Spotify ? 

 

OT: I think she has a high chance of winning, unless more big names are gonna drop singles before fall, then bring it on ! 

[Dorothy Gale 7,575]

I think Gaga should walk the carpet this year, and accept any awards, but I kind of want her to wait until the 2018 Grammys to perform a huge Joanne medley.

If she wins this year it will only be for PI

doesn't matter when Joanne would be released as long as it's after Sept 30th

Let's pray PI even gets a nomination 

[Pierre 10,480]

I feel like she looking more for a performance than an actual award there.

As much as I love Perfect Illusion, it is not a Grammy winning song.
