Fitzswiftie Posted Wednesday at 01:24 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:24 AM Quote 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. https://www.billboard.com/music/awards/sabrina-carpenter-grammy-best-new-artist-2025-eligible-or-not-1235718054/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Lynne won in 2001 after already being a recording artist for 12 years. Best New Artist is really Best Breakthrough Artist by this point. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kendoll2001 Posted Wednesday at 01:31 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:31 AM Chappell vs Sabrina is going to be a fun, exciting match up to witness go down I see Chappell taking BNA and Sabrina taking Best Pop Solo Performance in the end, and they both end up newly Grammys winners by February 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broolprop3 Posted Wednesday at 01:36 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:36 AM I would love to see Sabrina win a Grammy but her wining best new artist would be awkward since she's been releasing music since 2015 I imagine she would definitely shade them in her speech if she won 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheers Posted Wednesday at 01:36 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:36 AM Someone with soon to be 6 studio albums shouldn't be considered "New". Maybe they can have a separate Breakthrough Artist award. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
americanlife Posted Wednesday at 01:37 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:37 AM Chappell Roan should definitely get it, and Short N Sweet should not get an AOTY nom. I have a feeling that it will be nominated since they add in so many unnecessary nominees these days. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackoutZone Posted Wednesday at 02:25 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:25 AM This is embarrasing, she has like 5 projects, songs charting before around the world and had 2 different major label contracts Chappell should be the clear winner in this category 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosque Posted Wednesday at 02:30 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:30 AM I wouldn't be surprised to see her take it, she's very popular which helps, and has a much more palatable image than Chappell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyride Posted Wednesday at 02:54 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:54 AM Chappell is this year's critics darling and deservedly so. I'm sure they'll be competing in pretty much every major category. would love for Sabrina to be nominated though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
