The Grammy’s are the most anticipated music awards show of the year, and the nominees were just announced. Lizzo received the most nominations this year with eight nominations, followed by Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X with six nominations each. It’s a very tough choice this year between some of my favorite artists: Lizzo, Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, and Lana del Rey, all being nominated for some of the top awards. Here are my predictions for who I want to win and who will most likely win for each of the major categories. These are based on my opinions.

In the end, there were a lot of great artists nominated this year. There were also many Grammy snubs when it came to artists like Taylor Swift, Halsey, and the soundtrack for A Star is Born. We’ll see who the nominees are next year!
