With first-round voting for the 2020 GRAMMYs currently underway, we predict the nominees in six major categories — and offer our picks for who should win

, including the Grammy for Best Rap Album. His win for Best New Artist that same year ensured the universally beloved Chicago rapper will be a front-runner for any future awards. This year, and in the absence of new LPs by Kendrick Lamar and Drake, he’s an easy pick. Though long-awaited,wasn’t as commercially or critically successful as its predecessor — it’s the kind of poppy, optimistically wholesome rap record that wins mainstream awards.

Picking Tyler, the Creator’s critically championed opus would be a ballsy move, to say the least. But after nearly a decade in the game, his evolution from troll-y troublemaker with the L.A. outré-rap collective Odd Future to fully realized hip-hop auteur is one of pop music’s most compelling stories. True to Tyler’s groundbreaking rep,is a sonically rich, surprisingly vulnerable album that pushes boundaries and still sounds great.

BillieEilish Duh GRAMMYs

Also....if Lil Nas X loses “Record of the Year” when he literally broke records, to Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello that’s insane. 19 weeks at number one and he loses? Everyone should be fired at the academy if that happens.

Absolutely not. If Taylor Swift wins over Billie Eilish or Lizzo, I will lose my mind. She can’t win everytime she’s nominated. What Billie and Lizzo did this year is worthy of a win, plus their songs and albums had more of an impact than Taylor did this year.

But, True hurt was released on 2017 ...🤔🤨

Peppa comin for your favs

señorita soty? lmao

and the 2020 GRAMMY winners in General Field are: ROTY - You Need To Calm Down AOTY - Lover SOTY - Lover BNA - Billie Eilish hoes mad incoming

I'm confused, didn't the eligibility period start October 1st, 2018? Lizzo dropped Truth Hurts on September 19, 2017, how could she be nominated?

ME! ? Really? For a Song of the Year?

lizzo y monlaferte 💕💕💕
