We're just a few days away from the biggest night in music, The 59th annual Grammy Awards, which recognizes outstanding musical achievements in the past year. The Grammys has four "General Field" categories which are not restricted by genre. The big four is "Album of The Year," "Song of The Year," "Record of The Year," and "Best New Artist." Here's my prediction of who will win what award and who should win what award:
Who Will Win: The Grammys are good for big plot twists in this category, Sturgill Simpson's A Sailor's Guide To Earth will be the winner of this category. With so many A-List musicians like Adele, Beyonce, Justin Bieber, and Drake all against each other; we're all rooting for one of them. But just like the Beck and Beyonce album of the year curve ball, the Country Underdog may take how the Grammy Award and they may just do it for controversy.
Beyoncé, “Formation”
Adele, “Hello”
Mike Posner, “I Took a Pill in Ibiza”
Justin Bieber, “Love Yourself”
Lukas Graham, “7 Years”
Who Will Win: Adele's Hello will take home "Song of The Year," the Grammys is always in her favor when no other award show is. Co-Written with her producer Greg Kurstin; Hello lyrics discuss reminiscing and regret. Song of The Year acknowledges writers/composers of songs and it did not take many to make this masterpiece of a song.
Who Should Win: Beyoncé's Formation may have took the most writers/composers to make, but every last one of them deserve to be acknowledged for this work of art. The song is a song you can dance to with flawless choreography, yet as such political lyrics, ethnic lyrics. A black power anthem you can bop to, a great contribution to the black lives matter movement.
Who Will Win: Despite the Recording Academy stating Record of The Year is not based upon sales or charts; the award is always in favor of mainstream hits that were pretty successful. Debuting at #1 on the Hot 100 and becoming the first song to sell 1 million digital copies in one week, Adele's Hello will take home this award. The Grammys love Adele and the world love this song.
Who Should Win: Rihanna's Work was pretty much equal with breaking records as Adele's Hello. The song broke the record for most streams in a single week. The Grammys will overlook Rihanna's Work simply because she was speaking patois and Bajan creole and most critics called it gibberish.
Album of The Year
Adele, 25
Beyoncé, Lemonade
Justin Bieber, Purpose
Drake, Views
Sturgill Simpson, A Sailor's Guide To Earth
Who Should Win: Beyoncé's Lemonade is such an amazing album with such an amazing, relatable story whether if its true or not. The visuals included in this album is just as next level as the production of this album. The album is an experiment for Beyonce...An experiment done correctly, she cohesively put mixed genres into one album and it flows like one big song. The Grammys may over look another one of Beyonce's masterpiece and cause havoc on the internet.
Song of The Year
Adele, “Hello”
Mike Posner, “I Took a Pill in Ibiza”
Justin Bieber, “Love Yourself”
Lukas Graham, “7 Years”

Best New Artist
Kelsea Ballerini

The Chainsmokers
Anderson .Paak
Chance the Rapper
Maren Morris
The Chainsmokers
Anderson .Paak
Who Will Win: With the most commercial success in the past year, The Chainsmokers will be this year's Best New Artist. The recording academy may have ignored the longest running #1 single of 2016 in the General Categories they will be make up for it by awarding them with Best New Artist.
Who Should Win: Chance The Rapper deserves a Best New Artist because of his creativity this year and pushing boundaries while being an independent artist. He has the first streaming-only album to top Billboard 200 and changed the Grammys rules so stream-only albums can be nominated.
