Everybody’s favorite award show is tonight evening.
That’s right, the 66th Annual Grammy Awards.
PERFORMANCES
Let’s be honest.
The Grammyawardsthemselves are usually the most boring parts of the night.
What makes the entire thing worth tuining in for every year are the unforgettable performances.
Let’s be honest, the performances are why we all tune in.
Which should be amazing.
This year, expect the unexpected.
Her album “SOS” has been on repeat in every corner of the globe.
(My money is on r&b royalty joining her on stage for a surprise guest appearance.)
“It’s his first new pop song since 2007.
Then there’s Burna Boy, whose name alone suggests you’re in for something fiery.
If you’re curious about the future of global music sounds, Burna Boy’s set is a must-watch.
If jazz had a LinkedIn profile, Blackstone would be its most endorsed skill.
Expect a performance that’s smoother than your grandpa’s old scotch.
Here’s hoping we get another short skirt and pole dance to accompany.
Her performance of “Vampire” is bound to leave a wake of crushed male egos behind it.
That song cuts so deep.
Those are really the onlyannouncedperformances, but we all know the Grammys like to keep us on our toes.
While we’ve got some confirmed performers, expect a few surprise acts to pop up.
CATEGORIES AND PREDICTIONS
A reminder that we will be live streaming tonight, throw us a tune in.
White Sox Dave has been hammered since 8am so it should be entertaining.
Here’s my big question for tonight.
Is Taylor Swift rolling solo tonight?
ROBBIE FOX - Noah KahanI love Jelly Roll but this just feels like the year of Noah Kahan.
Dude is taking over folk/indie/pop right now.
Feitelberg - Noah Kahan.
New Englands only win of the year.
Kelly Keegs -Ice SpiceIce Spice by a mile.
I gotta go with my gut and go with Jelly Roll here.
It’s his year, he’s on fire, and the Grammys needs clicks.
We all saw the speech he gave at the CMA’s and the Grammy’s wants all of that.
It’s a toss-up, and my money’s on the underdog.
Because who doesn’t love a good underdog story?
Robbie Fox - Miley Cyrus FlowersSee above x2
Feitelberg - Taylor Swift.
Damn I didnt know she was gonna come up again, I wouldve structured my earlier explanations differently.
Miley and Olivia put up a good fight, but they fall short of Taylor and Billie IMO.
Dante - Olivia Rodrigo - vampire.
I haven’t heard a song like this in a long time.
It’s pretty amazing.
This girl is the real deal.
And if Coi Leray’s “Players” takes it, I’ll eat my hat.
Figuratively, of course.
Robbie Fox - Black Thought Love LetterI just listened to all of these songs for the first time.
Black Thought went acapella and captivated me for 4 minutes straight so I’m giving it to him.
That Drake song is great tho.
Feitelberg - Killer Mike.
I didnt see the performance but I like how him and Bernie Sanders are friends.
It feels like something that would happen in a cartoon.
Might as well give it to Drake then!
Dante - Killer Mike.I wrote like 10 blogs about this song and album.
I havent heard abt them since their last Grammy performance and I find that romantic.
Then you dont and have the same realization when you bump into them three years down the line.
Kelly Keegs - Boygenius Not Strong EnoughIt’s the year of Boygenius!
This crew is due for their accolades, they had an incredible year, and they deserve it.
Dante - Anybody but the lesbian supergroup boygenius for me here.
Which probably means they win it.
My heart says Black Pumas but my head said Foo Fighters.
They’ve had a brutal stretch.
Robbie Fox - Chris Stapleton White HorseThe new Stapleton album is incredible - as expected.
That intro build up is orgasmic.
Feitelberg- write in for Zach Bryan.
Its called loyalty, look it up.
Kelly Keegs - Luke Combs Fast CarNot a chance anyone but Luke Combs wins this right?
I’ve heard his version of Fast Car more than I’ve heard the original at this point.
There are people all over the world who think this IS the original.
He did a beautiful job covering a fantastic song, he deserves it.
Dante - Luke Combs.
This song was colossal and they’re performing it together (RUMOR) tonight.
Can’t say that about the rest of the options.
Feitelberg- Taylor Swift Antihero.
Kill Bill was AWESOME, and this could be her best shot.
If we want to keep Gen Z interested in the Grammys, this one goes to her.
Dante - Olivia Rodrigo - same thing I said above.
This girl’s sophomore albumgutsis fucking amazing.
It has real instruments, and a nostalgic grunge feel to it.
Now, for the Song of the Year, where the songwriters get their moment in the sun.
Will it be Billie Eilish with “What Was I Made For?”
or Miley Cyrus finally getting her Grammy moment with “Flowers”?
Robbie Fox- Song of the year
Miley Cyrus FlowersSee above
Feitelberg - Taylor Swift Antihero.
Take a wild guess why pal.
Kelly Keegs - Billie Eilish What Was I Made For?This one is tough.
Dua had the more fun song, but Billie’s “What Was I Made For?”
is touching, beautifully written/mixed, and has already won a handful of high status awards this season.
I think I’m gonna go with Billie.
Dante - Miley Cyrus - Flowers.
Her best song of her career.
She is longggggggg overdue.
Saved the best for last, the big shambola: Album of the Year.
Yeah, neither do I, but Batiste does, and he’s back for more.
Robbie Fox - Olivia Rodrigo GutsBasic bitch pick?
Feitelberg - Taylor Swift Midnights.
Kelly Keegs -Taylor Swift MidnightsI think this is the one that Taylor takes home.
It deserves its flowers.
Dante - Olivia Rodrigo - guts.
We are witnessing a super-duper-duper star in the making.
This girl is special,realtalent.
Here’s our Grammy breakdown and predictions.
We’ve been busy with the Backstage project.
