Mr S 8,672 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Joanne is definitely a dark horse contender for a nomination. Divide and DAMN are locks. 24k Magic is highly likely. Thats 3. They have to include a rock/indie album too. That will likely be either Metallica or LCD Soundsystem or both. There really aren't any female albums that could be nominated. They will either include Joanne or Melodrama or just go with an all male lineup. Melodrama hasn't had any commercial success whatsoever. She also had that mixed performance at the MTV awards where she didn't even sing. She is releasing a new single right now. Meanwhile Joanne was exposed at the SUperbowl despite being a long time ago. And news about her sold out stadiums and being the first to headline certain stadiums does get around. Plus her documentary. If only she had single to go along with all this. I still think Joanne won't make the cut, I say they will just go with all males. But Joanne is definitely a darkhorse for a nomination. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

REALITY 76,702 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I really hope Joanne gets the praise it deserves. I'm not just saying this as a Gaga fan, but to see what Gaga's been through this year and last year (and I'm sure we'll see a hell of a lot more when the documentary comes out), it'd be amazing to see her win a Grammy (or some) for Joanne. It's truly a beautiful album. Not only is it sonically amazing (I'd put it up there with BTW for my favorite album), but the messages behind the songs are also so genuine and authentic.ย ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ก๐๐ถ๐ข, โ'๐ฉ๐ฉ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ข ๐ถ๐ฌ๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ซ ๐ช๐ถ ๐ก๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ช๐ฐ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philo 344 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I agree too. When will they announce the nominations? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are quick to dismiss it because it wasn't a huge seller with huge airplay, or because they don't think its one of the best albums. They are right in a sense. But then, what 5 albums will make the cut then? Assuming Sheeran and Lamar are locks, theres 3 more spots for Bruno Mars, a rock album, Gaga, Lorde, maybe a country album. I can't think of another contender to include. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although The Cure isn't from Joanne, it does keep people talking about Gaga, especially on radio. I don't think they will go with an all-male lineup, I think Divide, DAMN and (24k Magic/Starboy) and one indie album will constitute four nominations, and then Joanneย will make the cut. I mean can you imagine an Album of the Year lineup without female? It's not likeย no one is trying, her name is Lady Gaga. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen 30,423 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 How about Jay Z? Also SZA has been getting a lot of buzz. I wouldn't count out Melodrama eitherย tbh, it feels like it could go either way for her.ย If Joanne doesn't get nominated for an album category I won't be surprised, but I'm expecting at least something for MR. If they snub that song......ย Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

venusfly 17,885 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I'm not too sure about Joanne, I think it will definitely be nominated in a few categories but not certain about AOTY. I'd put Melodrama, Starboy, DAMN., Divide and Rainbow as my predictions for nominations, with DAMN. taking the win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumblebee 2,528 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 It's a rather good analysis for some mainstream possible contenders.ย However,ย the lack of promotion of Melodrama doesn't disqualify it from a possible nomination. Far less promoted records have been nominated for AOTY in the past.ย Gaga is a B-listย contender for AOTY from mainstream music. When I say mainstream I don't mean to imply her chart success, I ย mean to say that she is a pop superstar with an established legacy and no matter how successful her commercial performance is, she is still regarded as a mainstream act.ย ย we can't predict anyย indie and less commercial acts that will make it to the AOTY. Their nomination often comes as a surprise. They may actually even replace someone who, as we believe, is guaranteed to have a nomination.ย Praying for Gaga to receive theย fourth AOTY nomination of her careerย Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMKKARDASHiAN 8,570 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I will be surprised if it's nominated for AOTY.ย Imo, when juxtaposed to the other potential nominees, it's just not as stellar.ย I think melodrama deserves its over Joanne, and even then I don't think it's the best album of the possible contendersย Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
