She's attending so that's hopefully a good sign, but she mentioned being respectful to the Grammys and others so does that mean she doesnt have even a clue if she's the frontrunner for AOTY and the other noms? Also the chances are very slim but if she wins all seven she breaks the record she shares with Bey- most won by a woman in one night. I really doubt she wins all her nominations She's losing Best Music Video for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donquizote Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 How the hell is EOM still in Top 100 Spotify after >1 year of release? Imagine if it won ROTY and SOTY, I think it will shoot to Top 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donquizote Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I won't count her out especially when she won all EMMYs during her flop era. At this rate, I think she has gained enough respect in the industry that she'll win anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the chances are very slim but if she wins all seven she breaks the record she shares with Bey- most won by a woman in one night. She mighta been tipped off that she's gonna win *something*. Like, she said at the Brits last year that she knew going in there that she had won at least one. I know they aren't really comparable as awards shows, but still. And I really hope she wins big, whatever amount. Because it would prove that the other artists (still) love her. And that she did not get those previous Grammys just because of her sales. And that there's no committee voting anymore. So if she wins without them, again, a proof that she was always loved. It wasn't just some white men deciding to give her everything. And honestly, if Taylor's won AOTY three times, then for damn sure Adele should too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feel confident that she's universally loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aslan Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) the committee was for nominations (to my knowledge) her peers still voted for both of her AOTY wins so Some people just need to understand outside of twitter people prefer A to Bey..GET OVER IT it doesn't mean tho that A is safe because look at last years upset with Jon Batiste winning over the front runners Olivia and Bille.

Filpo Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 There's no way she's winning AOTY, it's either Kendrick or Beyoncé. Miss EOM, on the other hand, will collect its due flowers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss EOM, on the other hand, will collect its due flowers. It probably won't be Kendrick. Rap albums are never able to get votes from artists in smaller sub-genres that vote, unfortunately. iirc members of each genre, recognized by the Grammys, cast their own votes. When you look at the genres, you understand why black artists struggle in the general field categories. Ones like Classical, Country, New Age, American Roots, etc don't vote for rap albums. That's also why Beyonce has never won it either. They make "black music", so the old white men in those categories will never vote for it. However, I actually think Adele, Beyonce, and Harry might cancel each other out in AOTY voting and someone like Brandi Carlile win take it. EOM probably wins Record and Song of the Year though (AIW is her only real competition), which is a great night for her if it does. We'll know ahead of time though based on what genre albums are presented on the pre-show. If they do Pop Vocal Album on the pre-show, and she wins, then she likely won AOTY. If they do Pop Vocal album on the main show, then she likely lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dua won Pop album and Taylor AOTY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely not sweep, yeah. But deffo winning something. And I have some questions about the so called "critical acclaim" of albums in general. It seems like politics and reputation matters in album review scores as well. Like, how did Taylor's original version of the Red album get 77 Metacritic, but the re-released version got 91? Do you see what I mean? There's things outside of the music itself that affects these things. And I think that's bad. Even if 21 was to be re-released, I think it would get 90 in review score now. The original score 76 is way too low anyway. And like, I think 30 is Adele's best album overall, but is it really 12 points better than 21? No, I don't think so.

anti-bitch Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Not Adele manifesting 25 in this video from 2009 already, haha. She said that maybe her next album will be 25, lol. Missed one step there.

Reflektor_Creep Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 So since not many will be performing at the Grammys, it's Adele's time to shine with an epic performance of Hold On. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anti-bitch Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 And honestly @GreatestLoveofAll I think that nothing that's happened in the last few years at the Grammys is an indication of what could happen this time, because to me it seems like Adele is head and shoulders above everyone else in the industry when it comes to respect and people just liking her overall. Just look at all the reactions from people going to see her at Vegas, many of whom are other artists and music business executives, therefore potential Grammy voters. I think Sunday is gonna be an amazing night. Monday morning for me actually, lol. But can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
