Abel f*cked up coming back with a tail between his legs after all that yapping he did following the 2020 shut out

I agree with that, I don’t know if it’s about pride of me but I don’t think I would never submit anything ever again. I personally can’t get over the snub for After Hours to this day tbh.

But then HUT didn’t do much noise besides Timeless so anyways lol

I mentioned it being Gaga's 5th album of the year nom. Well, HitsDailyDouble posted and they only mention it being Kendrick's 5th consecutive. I am entirely biased but I feel like Gaga trying to mix so many styles of music (so frequently) deserves it more than mostly staying in your lane. Let's see if Kendrick becomes the "overdue" discussion while they ignore Gaga being on her 5th nom. 

 

This came out so negative. Still very happy and excited for Gaga!

What's up with all these capitalized titles in the best album nominees? It's not edgy and alternative if everyone is doing it

Looking at this composition, Luther may take home ROTY/SOTY. Gaga has the edge with AOTY. 

There are FOUR, strong and viable Rap/RnB contendors which will peel votes away from Kendick. 

No pop voter in their right mind will vote for Sabrina or Justin Bieber over Gaga. Wild card is Bad Bunny but I think pop voters will stand behind Gaga in droves, in addition to some goodwill hopefully from the Jazz base. 

Absolutely! 

This is the best case scenario for us. The only better scenario here would've been if Sabrina was snubbed, but hey, its still good. 

The Grammy Guru just even posted an initial prediction implying Kendrick's win in AOTY is considerably harder now due to the same reasoning you posted. 

I would like to add that, while Sabrina might chip away some of Gaga's votes, she can recoup them with the Dance/EDM and Jazz voters, given that there is no EDM or Jazz nominee in AOTY. Kendrick cannot recoup his loses because of the Rnb and Rap split. His win depended solely on monopolizing them. 

And lastly, only Swag, Mayhem and GNX got producer of the year nominations. Rnb Producers will split between Swag and Rnb, while Pop producers could also help recoup chipped votes for Mrs Polansky.

This COULD help cancel out Bad Bunny's new influx of latin voters, essentially putting her back to a strong sqaure one.

Can we talk for a second about this mess:

Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album Nominees:

Harlequin - Lady Gaga
A Matter Of Time - Laufey
Wintersongs - Laila Biali
The Gift Of Love - Jennifer Hudson
Who Believes In Angels? - Elton John & Brandi Carlile
The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume 2 - Barbra Streisand

I'm praying for Harlequin because what is this? Like you can't even think about any of these having this Grammy secured  We need the show ASAP, Gaga 

I just hope the other 5 fight against each other while a good chunk of people vote for Harlequin  

First of all, I didn't know the Elton John's album was traditional pop and I wasn't expecting Barbra to get a nomination here after the awful reviews she got. So here's me thinking (and hoping) these 2 steal votes from each other while Laila Biali and Laufey's albums do the same with each other...

Which leaves JHud and Gaga as frontrunners, even tho I think it's Laufey who might be battling against Gaga (BUT she won this year so I hope voters don't want to give it to her 2 years in a row ) and I hope all the work Gaga did in the past with Tony pays off awards wise now. I need Harlequin winning that Grammy

We need the show!

Honestly, I was most looking forward to this nomination for the possibility that she relesses the recorded special.

I think this is the only chance we have of getting the show. It was the album getting a nomination and us getting the show or we ended up getting nothing.

I really think it's coming because it's the only thing they have to campaign for that Grammy and I heard the show is really good!

so do we have 7 or 8

7 for Gaga. The 8th nom is for the Abra remix but it only credits the remixer i.e. Gesaffelstein.

Sorry, I'm only seeing four nominees for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical? Not seeing Mayhem there (or any other AOTY). Can someone confirm if she landed this nom?

You're right. Mayhem didn't get in Best Engineered. Idk why people kept poisting about it.

This fanbase is so unfocused.. like y'all praying she wins Traditional Pop for Harlequin when Mayhem for AOTY is absolutely within reach. Can we please prioritize. It's clear she wants this award and would throw every other win out if she can win this top prize, which she absolutely deserves for this incredible album amid a sea of boring music.
