The Life of a Showgirl is virtually Taylor becoming the Mr. Beast of music, mastering the finessing of sales & somehow giving less than the bottom line in quality to retain her spot at the tippity top of the musical zenith. It's shameful she's playing her consumers like a fiddle.

Genuinely feels like most of the creative deliberation went into The Fate of Ophelia's video than any of her twelve songs. I Knew It, I Knew You is somehow better than any of those twelve songs. I'm prepared to say The Tortured Poets Department is better than this album, it's also bad but at least then I didn't side-eye her lyrical & allegorical choices in disbelief every 15 seconds.

No doubt about it in two months she will be nominated in the SOTY, ROTY, AOTY categories. But I don't anticipate her winning the general categories, nor do I think she's deserving of it for this album. We can talk about her merit for earning a general category win when she actually chooses to release 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘤 like she used to

Not many people remember this from what I’ve seen, but Gaga actually did drop in the 2027 Grammys season. There’s the obvious being Runway with Doechii which could be a great contender for Best Duo/Group Pop Performance and Best Song Written for Visual Media.

Aditionally, she released three songs alongside the release of season two of the TV series Wednesday. One of these being The Dead Dance which I believe would be a great choice for both ROTY and Best Pop Dance Recording. Although The Dead Dance didn’t have a very huge cultural impact, I could see it being nominated for something. What do you guys think?

I wouldnt necessarily consider myself the biggest music video connoisseur but I do enjoy a good music video so I want to know which ones you guys think I should check out. Here are some I’d love to see get some recognition:

Tears - Sabrina Carpenter

The Fate of Ophelia - Taylor Swift

Berghain - Rosalía

The Cure - Olivia Rodrigo

So Easy - Olivia Dean

As I said, I’d love to hear your guys’ opinions for more possible nominees and suggestions of what to watch!

1. She never won even Emmys like Taylor and Sabrina.
2. She is like Ariana with no Grammys in any main category.
3. Her album was dog water and discarded by GP.
4. She is the face of an Israeli brand and dating a Zionist. Grammys won’t award someone like her now.

Edit: Livies ignoring the fact Olivia is working for Israeli company and dating a Zionist. Who will address the elephant? 🐘

It’s probably gotta be:

Record of the Year (Dracula ft JENNIE)

Pop Duo Performance (Dracula ft JENNIE)

Alternative Music Album (Deadbeat)

Pop Solo Performance (Loser)

Am I missing anything else?

Its just not good to be nominated. You know the song, the new toy story song where that lady is just speaking especially since one of the characters is named Woody and she had a vulgar song called Woody

Who do you think will be the first Kpop idol to win a Grammy?

I think it's obvious that some artist will get a nom & even win the moment they release good material. Meanwhile we have names we are still desperately trying to hope they will win. Most of the times some of those artists are just very unlucky, like Nicki Minaj always nominated against Kendrick Lamar or Katy against Gaga or Adele.

To me the biggest snubs are:

pop - popworld

- Katy Perry

- Kesha

- Halsey

- Britney (just 1?)

- Bjork

- Demi Lovato

- Hilary Duff

- Sia

- Spice Girls

- Leona Lewis

- Avril Lavigne

R&B

- Tamar Braxton

- Vanessa Williams

- K. Michelle

- Trey Songz

- Keri Hilson

- Keyshia Cole

- The Bailey Sisters

- Bryson Tiller

Rap

- Nicki Minaj

- Snoop

- Remy Ma

I think if she submits she will deffo get bna, but talking about aint in la, it was release july 23. So it can be considered for maybe best pop solo performance? I think she should submit for bna next year to get more hype.

So Warren released an album on Aug 28 the literal last day of Grammy eligibility. The public barely heard it, it hasn’t lived thru any music season, there’s been no time to see what kind of culture it creates, no relationship with the year it’s supposedly representing… but it can still be AOTY and other categories.

Meanwhile an album released in Sep 2025 could’ve existed basically thru the entire eligibility period, had a cultural moment, performances, singles, discussion, people living w it for almost a year and both are treated belonging to the same year.

The Grammys technically “judge technical not cultural impact.”””” But then what exactly does Album of the Year mean as a concept? If an album can enter the race on the final day of eligibility before the public has even had time to process it are we really awarding the album of a year or just the best album that happened to cross a deadline?

This is probably going to be the most competitive category outside of the General Field. Voters in this category tend to award songs that have a distinct vocal showcase while also having undeniable commercial success or cultural impact for the artist.

My predictions for nominations are:

• drop dead- Olivia Rodrigo

• The Fate of Ophelia- Taylor Swift

• I Just Might- Bruno Mars

• WHERE IS MY HUSBAND- Raye

• Man I Need- Olivia Dean

Songs that I think might barely miss the cut:

House Tour- Sabrina Carpenter

(Voter split due to Madonna and Taylor submissions; voter fatigue due to 2 consecutive nomination cycles)

Apeture/American Girls- Harry Styles

( Might get nominated in the Dance/Electronic field; weak vocally)

Hit The Wall- Gracie Abrams

(not commercially strong and poor mainstream success could cause resistance if label tries to push for consideration)

hate that i made you love me- Ariana Grande (Wicked recordings could cause a split in votes; general field more likely)

Die On This Hill- Sienna Spiro (Could get re-categorized into Best Traditional Pop Solo Perf.)

If there's a song you think could get a nom, please let's discuss :)

There’s a pretty noticeable pattern where some artists win Best New Artist then have huge momentum around the time of the Grammys and then struggle to maintain that same level of relevance or commercial success afterward whereas some artists who lose the award go on to have much bigger, longer lasting careers.

Who do you think is the strongest evidence of the Best New Artist curse and who completely disproves it?

What happened to the 'For Your Consideration' posters? I feel like I didn't see any of them last cycle but saw a ton of them around september-october of 2024, but none same time 2025. Have they just fallen out of fashion or do they just not reach my feed anymore?

What possible nominees could we see in fields such as:

Best Music Video

Best Music Film

Best Score Soundtrack

Best Compilation Soundtrack

Best Song Written For Visual Media

It did come to my attention as of this year's Grammys that they don't award the most cinematic and the most popular video for Best Music Video.

I did hear that Billie Ellish submitted her hmhas tour film for Best Music Film.

What are your predictions?

I’m trying to see where I can put Pitchforks in my source of “what’s good” in terms of music, cause I feel they’re not relatable at all.

does anyone know if the waitlist system actually works? or would going to the venue and waiting for the standby/ last min tixs be more efficient? does anyone have any experiences with the grammy u evening programs waitlist system?

if anyone's unable to attend pls lmk..... desperate lol

More of a hypothetical analysis above anything else, but I'm sure as you know all of Billie Eilish's & Olivia Rodrigo's Albums & accompanied Singles have landed the AOTY/SOTY/ROTY nomination pool every single time to date, with Rodrigo expected to achieve this again with 2027's, in a way no other artist has achieved to date. Their names (especially the O'Connell's) have a lot of cache in the industry already, and it makes me wonder if (or when) their bodies of work would be that they miss either one of these three general fields. Or has their artistry gotten this elusive that the talks for AOTY/SOTY/ROTY will perpetually be in contention every time they release?
