RAMROD 98,487 Posted Wednesday at 05:25 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:25 PM The rules and guidelines booklet for the upcoming 67th Grammy Awards notes: “While there will be no specified maximum number of releases, the Screening Committee will be charged with determining whether the artist had attained a breakthrough or prominence prior to the eligibility year. Such a determination would result in disqualification.” The eligibility year for the upcoming Grammysbegan on Sept. 16, 2023. At that point, Carpenter had reached the Billboard Hot 100 with two singles – “Skin,” which debuted and peaked at No. 48 in February 2021, and “Nonsense,” which peaked at No. 56 in February 2023. While Carpenter had never climbed above a so-so No. 48 on the Hot 100 prior to this eligibility year, she has been on fire in recent months, with her current single, “Please Please Please,” debuting at No. 2 last week and moving up to No. 1 this week. It’s always been hard to come up with hard-and-fast rules governing best new artist, which is probably why the description of the category in the rules and guidelines booklet is easily twice as long as the descriptions of album, record and song of the year, combined. Carpenter has not been previously nominated for a Grammy, which generally results in disqualification from best new artist. And she has not been entered in the best new artist competition three times, which is an automatic disqualifier. Tate McRae has been entered three times (the last three years), so she is not eligible to be entered again. Carpenter has been entered twice – in 2017 and 2024, so she does not run afoul of that rule. It will be up to the aforementioned Screening Committee to weigh all these factors and decide if Carpenter should be allowed to compete for best new artist. The key criteria: “This category recognizes an artist whose eligibility-year release(s) achieved a breakthrough into the public consciousness and notably impacted the musical landscape.” The Academy can’t confirm what will or won’t be on the ballot until the screening process is completed. They don’t want to box themselves into a position, when it’s really the prerogative of the screening committee to make those decisions. But that committee does generally seem to look for ways to include, rather than exclude artists in this category. They seem to recognize that new artists develop and break through at their own pace. https://www.billboard.com/music/awards/sabrina-carpenter-grammy-best-new-artist-2025-eligible-or-not-1235718054/amp/ (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ with birds I share this lonely view (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when Sabrina is eligible, someone who was more well known before 2024 and has 5 albums, it’s understandable why the gp/fans would think it’s odd. It just has to do with Grammy rules and those change a lot so it makes sense why people wouldn’t know them.

monstertoronto 7,959 Posted Wednesday at 08:11 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:11 PM (edited) They should call it “Best Emerging Artist” or “Best Rising Artist” because that seems to be what they’re actually honouring here, not whether they’re actually “new”.

This is actually a great idea tbh. If you rename the category you basically open up the chances for all those artists who had their moment later on their careers 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
