bad guy Posted Wednesday at 06:50 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:50 PM Chappell seems like the obvious win to me but I feel like they'll give it to Sabrina which is hilarious considering her debut came out nearly a decade ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianNicki Posted Wednesday at 06:59 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:59 PM To be honest they should change the name from Best New Artist to Best Breakthrough Artist or something. That would make more sense. Imagine nominating a girl with 5 albums and 10 year long career for a Best New Artist award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teenager Posted Wednesday at 08:02 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:02 PM They should just rename it "best breakthrough artist" and then they can keep the rules the same more or less 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbitch Posted Wednesday at 08:06 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:06 PM Lmao they're so weird. I really need them to get their **** together with this award. Nothing is more ridiculous than anitta getting a nom after debuting in 2012 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dialamba Posted Wednesday at 08:09 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:09 PM Atp just rebrand as best breakthrough artist because this category doesn't make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpressMeMuch Posted Wednesday at 08:28 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:28 PM clearly they should rebrand it to: Best Industry Plant 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2011-2015 ruleset was the best one imo No previous albums No previous Grammy wins The above actually means the artist is genuinely "new". Them changing it in 2016 has just led to ridiculous nominations and submissions ever since. No Grammy wins makes the most sense. Someone can have released albums previously without having a breakthrough so that is a stretch but the Grammy wins makes no sense considering most of the time (if not all) when an artist who's new is nominated they were submitted for Best New Artist and/or nominated.

nicholas Posted Thursday at 01:24 AM Share Posted Thursday at 01:24 AM they shold change the title to best breakthrough artists because "new" artist is losing all meaning with these girls been in the industry for 6+ years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BussC,XOXO Posted Thursday at 03:04 AM Share Posted Thursday at 03:04 AM yeah i agree with naming it best breakthrough artist or something because this so stupid and confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miles. Posted Thursday at 03:28 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:28 PM Good, but Sabrina should also be ineligible. The rule needs to be: no full length albums released before this year's eligibility period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simbs Posted Thursday at 03:36 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:36 PM The criteria and rules for this category are super messy, but i don't necessarily think the other ones shouldn't be eligible. Chappell is an obvious winner imo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tate and her team really should've held off on her 3rd submission until she had a proper breakthrough moment (as she has recently). The rules are nonsensical but that's how to play the game.
