Grammy predictions: Beyoncé, Eilish, and Roan set to dominate!

The biggest night in music is here! The 67th Grammy Awards are set to be a showdown of legendary proportions. With the Los Angeles wildfires dampening the usual pre-Grammy festivities, the focus is sharper than ever on the nominees. Will this be the night Beyoncé finally claims the trophies that have eluded her? Can Billie Eilish make history once again? Will a new star rise? Let’s dive into our predictions!

Album of the year: Beyoncé’s big moment?

Nominees:

• New Blue Sun – André 3000
• Cowboy Carter – Beyoncé
• Short n’ Sweet – Sabrina Carpenter
• Brat – Charli XCX
• Djesse Vol. 4 – Jacob Collier
• Hit Me Hard and Soft – Billie Eilish
• The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess – Chappell Roan
• The Tortured Poets Department – Taylor Swift

Beyoncé didn’t just drop Cowboy Carter—she made history! She became the first Black woman to top Billboard’s country album chart. She reimagined Jolene and introduced us to rising star Shaboozey. Nine months later, she reminded the world of her power by premiering eight songs live on Netflix, stealing the spotlight from the Super Bowl. The message? She’s not here to play. The Recording Academy can’t deny her again. This time, Queen Bey takes it home.

Winner: Beyoncé

Record of the year: Billie Eilish’s time to shine!

Nominees:

• “Now and Then” – The Beatles
• “Texas Hold ‘Em” – Beyoncé
• “Espresso” – Sabrina Carpenter
• “360” – Charli XCX
• “Birds of a Feather” – Billie Eilish
• “Not Like Us” – Kendrick Lamar
• “Good Luck, Babe!” – Chappell Roan
• “Fortnight” – Taylor Swift ft. Post Malone

Ringo Starr may want a Grammy for The Beatles’ final song, but history isn’t on his side. Even Hey Jude and Let It Becouldn’t win this category. The Recording Academy favors smash hits, and Billie Eilish is the queen of Grammy gold. She and Finneas have already won ROTY twice. Birds of a Feather is their strongest contender yet. Ubiquitous, emotional, and brilliantly produced—this one’s a lock!

Winner: Billie Eilish

Song of the year: a historic hat trick for Billie?

Nominees:

• “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” – Shaboozey
• “Birds of a Feather” – Billie Eilish
• “Die With a Smile” – Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars
• “Fortnight” – Taylor Swift ft. Post Malone
• “Good Luck, Babe!” – Chappell Roan
• “Not Like Us” – Kendrick Lamar
• “Please Please Please” – Sabrina Carpenter

Billie Eilish has already won Song of the Year twice. No one has ever done it three times—but Billie is about to change that. Birds of a Feather is everything the Academy loves: emotional depth, lyrical brilliance, and an unforgettable melody. With hauntingly poetic lines like, ‘Til I rot away, dead and buried / ‘Til I’m in the casket you carry, this song will stand the test of time.

Winner: Billie Eilish

Best new artist: Chappell Roan’s meteoric rise!

Nominees:

• Benson Boone
• Sabrina Carpenter
• Doechii
• Khruangbin
• Raye
• Chappell Roan
• Shaboozey
• Teddy Swims

The best new artist category isn’t just for fresh faces—it’s for artists who’ve recently exploded onto the scene. Sabrina Carpenter has been in the game for years, but Chappell Roan is the name on everyone’s lips. In just a few months, she went from an unknown act to a festival favorite. Governors Ball, Lollapalooza, SNL—she’s done it all. Plus, she’s already earned respect from legends like Joni Mitchell, Elton John, and Brandi Carlile. The Academy loves an artist’s artist. This one’s hers to lose.

Winner: Chappell Roan

The 67th Grammys are shaping up to be a night of history-making moments. Beyoncé is ready to claim her long-overdue crown. Billie Eilish could break records. Chappell Roan might solidify her star power. Who will actually take home the gold? We’ll find out soon!
