Grammy Awards 2019: Who Should Win Record/Song of the Year?
The categories that seemed to ‘benefit’ the least from the expansions of nominees from 5 to 8 this year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year remain, for the most part, quite predictable. All but one of the nominees were top 10 hits on the Hot 100, but there were still a few … Continue reading

Grammy Awards 2019: Nomination Predictions – Best New Artist
Of the four General field categories at the Grammy Awards, Best New Artist is arguably the most unpredictable when it comes to selecting potential nominees.

Grammy Awards 2019: Nomination Predictions – Pop
I’m kicking off this year’s Grammy Award Nomination predictions a little later than usual given how inaccurate I have been in previous years. This time I waited for confirmation of the submissions for most of the big categories, namely Best New Artist where some shock omissions from the list would have made my eventual predictions … Continue reading
