- sherlock
  
  Beautiful People should be for Song of the Year, instead. IMO.
- Dmb
  
  I think Adele will clean up.
  
  I hope Gaga gets nothing. That album was a huge dissappointment for something she proclaimed would be the album of the decade.
- Joe
  
  Umm…the only ones I agree with are Adele for Album, Song, and Record of the Year. And maaaybe Nicki Minaj for Best New Artist.
- StevenT
  
  Adele will clean up, no question. However I believe there will be some surprises that are not on the above list. You didnt list many of the rock, pop, and even country artists who usually dominate these categories.
- Stone
  
  For the record Best Rap/Sung collaboration was discontinued as of last year. Alicia Keys and Jay Z are the final recipients of that award.
- BIANCA
  
  Let me tell y’all how its gonna go
  album of the year will either be Tony Bennet, Adele or Kanye’s Beautiful Dark Fantasy (since its one of the most critically acclaimed albums in modern music history)
  Song and Record of the year will go to Rolling in the Deep
  Female Pop Vocal will be Adele
  Kanye will win the most of the Hip Hop Awards either with Jay or alone
  RnB will be swept clean by Beyonce.
- Eddie
  
  Beyonce has a chance at winning the following:
  Best R&B Album- 4
  Best R&B Vocals- Love on Top or 1+1
  Best Pop Vocals- I Was Here
  
  She has a possible chance at being nominated for album of the year, but she has a slim chance of winning.
- MISHKA
  
  ALBUM OF THE YEAR
  Adele – ’21′ (WINNER)
  Bruno Mars – ‘Doo-Wops & Hooligans’
  Cee Lo Green – ‘The Lady Killer’
  Lady Gaga – ‘Born This Way’(Nomination not deserved but Oh Well…)
  Beyoncé – ’4′
  
  RECORD OF THE YEAR
  Adele – ‘Rolling in the Deep’ (WINNER)
  Chris Brown – ‘Beautiful People’ (lol)
  Kanye West – ‘All of the Lights (Ft. Rihanna)’ (Runner-up)
  PitBull ft Ne-Yo: Give me everything
  
  Song of the Year
  Adele – ‘Someone Like You’ (WINNER)
  Drake – ‘Headlines’ (lol Part 2)
  
  R&B Song
  R. Kelly – ‘When A Woman Loves’
  
  Best New Artist
  J. Cole (WINNER)
  Miguel (Love him but nope)
  Nicki Minaj (Gurl please)
  Wiz Khalifa (Not so new)
- Dmb
  
  The Grammys is biased towards Beyonce so yeh she might have a chance at a few.
- PaVaris
  
  Album of the Year:
  Adele–21
  Kanye West–My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
- PaVaris
  
  Album of the Year:
  Adele–21
  Kanye West–My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
  Bruno Mars-
  Beyonce–4
- Shouw
  
  I’ll put Kanye West “My Beautiful dark…”in Album of the Year instead of Watch the Throne :/
- Jamie
  
  Behinds ain’t getting nothing this year. Her material want good enough, and it didn’t chart well so…. y’all can sit. Kelly Rowland will get a few though.
- Katie
  
  For album of the year, in my opinion will be Beyonce – 4, Taylor Swift – Speak Now and Adele – 21.
  
  Beyonce will probably do well in the R&B, Taylor in country and Adele with all the main awards
- 4AM
  
  Best R&B Album
  Rahsaan Patterson – 6AM should win hands down, brilliant album.
  R. Kelly – Love Letter
  Beyonce – 4
  Cee Lo Green – The Lady Killer <— y'all forget this album is pure brilliance.
- oiiiiii jazmine
  
  Lol what’s my name would NOT win song of the year and LOUD would NOT win album of the year. One number..21!!
- Adam
  
  Yall are forgetting about other genres idk if trent listed it to 1 genre on purpose but FOSTER AND THE PEOPLE have a big chance of winning best new artist. Nicki should win but rappers don’t usually win that award which makes no sense to me .It would be nice for Jennifer Lopez to be nominated /win her 1st grammy for Best dance recording. Britney spears needs another grammy. I have a slight feeling that Adele will be snubbed from winning,but she will be nominated heavily.
- KWON_THE_LEO
  
  ADELE WILL SWEEP OF COURSE! BEY WILL GET SOMETHING, SHE ALWAYS DOES. AND LADY GAGA WILL NOT WALK AWAY EMPTY HANDED. I PREDICT LADY GAGA WILL HAVE THE MOST NOMINATIONS.
- Lovatic
  
  I hope Demi Lovato will be nominated for “Best New Artist” She really deserve it. She went through alot. She really can sing. Her voice is wonderful. I really hope she will.
- T
  
  Nicki Minaj deserves Best New Artist success wise.
- Girrrl
  
  All I know is that Adele is going to sweep. I think Tony Bennett is gonna get album of the year. I have a feeling that 4 will get snubbed. It hasn’t had any impact. Rihanna might get a dance award but I think Gaga will beat her in that category.
- Gdboyratedloud
  
  Born this way is terrible (song and album)
  What’s My Name? 165 AI what other recent song did that?? Song of the year record of the year
  STAY MAD
- theman
  
  JLO’s “On The Floor” deserves a dance grammy but that may go to Gaga. Adele deserves song,album and record of th yr. But they’ll probably do the same sh*t as always and give it to Tony Bennett. Haters……… Bey should be in the r&b cat. Rihanna lol not.
- Rihbaby
  
  RIHANNA:
  
  LONG FORM MUSIC VIDEO: THE LOUD TOUR
  BEST R&B SONG: LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE PT 2
  BEST RAP COLLAB: RAINING MEN FEAT. NICKI MINAJ
  ALBUM OF THE YEAR: LOUD
  BEST DANCE RECORDING: WE FOUND LOVE
  BEST REMIX TRACK: S&M FEAT. BRITNEY
  BEST ART WORK: RIHANNA LOUD

  SONG OF THE YEAR: LOUD
  LEGEND AWARD: RIHANNA
  DOMESTIC ABUSE WINNER: RIHANNA
  HUMANITARIAN AWARD: RIHANNA
  BEST CHICK IN THE GAME: RIHANNA
  
  RIH RIH WILL SWEEP ALL THESE RECORDS AND SCORE 10 WINS IN ONE NIGHT AND ADELE WILL BE SNUBBED, IT’S RIHANNA’S YEAR AND Y’ALL LESSORS WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND WATCH!!!!! MARIAH CAREY WATCH YOUR BACK BECAUSE RIHANNA WILL SNATCH YOUR 18 NUMBER ONE RECORD!!!!!!
- Tony
  
  Both Beyonce and Lady Gaga’s albums were really mediocre. Same with Watch The Throne.
  
  Adele will win a lot of course, even though she makes the kind of music you want to kill yourself to. The grammys love that crap.
  
  Although I love Beautiful People, it will probably be nominated for a Best Dance track because it was never an official single in America, despite being a smash hit in places like the UK and Australia.
  
  If Nicki Minaj wins best new artist…..ugh. I hope she doesn’t get to perform. And how hasn’t Bruno Mars been out for a long time to still be nominated for the same album. Everywhere I go I see his bug eyes and hear his corny hooks.
  
  He sucks! yeah I said it! The urban awards I always love even though they rarely televise it. R Kelly, The Roots, Big Sean, Chris Brown — Look At Me Now should get nominations etc.
- Rhea
  
  Dude you’re forgetting Taylor Swift(Tho I don’t like her) and Beyonce?Adele will sweep,thats for sure.Bey might get one or two.Gaga will get her noms but idk if she’ll win,tough competition.She has a chance in Dance categories,but FTP might slay!AND ARE RIHANNA STANS TOTALLY RIHTARDED OR WHAATTT?LMFAAAO!SIT THE FUCK DOWN.

  Yeah thats what you dumbass Rihtard stans said last year! You know damn well the yodeler ain’t getting that many nominations! Loud album was SHIT! She’ll be lucky if she gets 2!
  
  Now fucking DEAL with that!!
- jewerly girl
  
  Jamie, I would like for Kelly to be nominated but as we all know the Grammy is a popularity contest and the
  popularity people right now are Adele, Gaga, Spears
  and Beyonce.
  
  know
- wayno
  
  Its gonna be very interesting to see Adele beat out all the male vocalist since this is the first year that the females vs males are in the same cat.– R/B performance should have Kelly Rowland’s “Motivation”. She may be the only female in the category. Bey’s WRTW or Best Thing I Never Had may not be strong enough. Ledesi’s Pieces of Me is a no-brainer
- jessica
  
  there is no more category for best dance song anymore it’s a lot more competitive this year b/c they cut so many cats out so i’ll hold my opinion for now
- Tahj M.
  
  Adele deserves to tie with Beyonce on the record for most awards won by a female artist in 1 night . Or atleast with Beyonce , Norah J and Lauryn for 2nd most awarded female in one night .
- parris
  
  @Tahj– Beyonce won in lesser categories…Adele is gonna win at least 6 in all the major categories

  @stone r u serious? why was it discontinued?
- http://www.facebook.com/rory.maynor rory
  
  @katie that’s exactly how it’s gonna go
- http://www.facebook.com/rory.maynor rory
  
  I think that Adele will definitely beat Beyonce’s record with most Grammys won by a female in one night

  This Year Has Been All About Adele, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Chris Brown, && Kanye West && Yall All Know That ..
  
  Im Not Going To Say How Many I Think They Should Win Thats Up To The Grammy Committee But I Know For Sure They Will Win At Least One Grammy.

  && Yes Rihanna Will Win At Least One Or Two Grammy’s For Only Girl (In The World) && What’s My Name ..
- Jason
  
  Where are the Foo Fighters on this list? They made an album without computers in a garage, unlike all of these other bands who have other people changing their voices, added beats, or writing their music.
- george
  
  stevie nicks delivered a masterpiece w/ IN YOUR DREAMS.. it will be a crime to see it overlooked… gag gag is already getting tiresome… but we fans know what should be nomed
- Kyle
  
  Adele will (unfortunately) sweep most major awards, but she will have steep competition from Kanye, Foo Fighters, and Lady Gaga especially. But if its like last year then none of these people will win and an unknown will win!
- khym
  
  Adele will win because she is true to herself and she’s deserve it. She has a good voice.
- khym
  
  Adele is a very gooood singer ever.

  duh~… i dont give a damn about grammy! it’s sucks… grammy is nothing.. look at Britney Spears, she’s only have one grammy but still, she’s the most selling female artist of the decade and she’s the only one from 90′s pop era who still survive until now… Gaga supposed to get nothing but yeah, she’s the illuminati ambassador, so hell yeah them illuminati lobby the grammy…

- Precious
  
  The day when real “Artist” not that generic pop bullsh*t artist get nominated and actually win is the day i will look forward to the Grammy’s i like Lady Gaga, but ever since she came out the rules have changed beacuse of her the 2010 Grammy’s i was upset at so many great song that weren’t even nominated! Christina Aguilera’s “You Lost Me” or Alicia Keys “UN-Thinkable” these two songs should have won over Rihanna and Katy Perry. The Grammy’s have become a popularity competition. I Love Adele I Hope She takes them all home. #TeamRealArtists
- Make me B
  
  Jerry J & California Flight {Project} Its the hottest joint anywhere. Yeah they don’t have all the bucks but they got history. N of that~ CUTEST SMILE , For the Best R&B Song of the year. And Best R&B Vocals , man the Academey knows something these artist POP/RAP/ALL the money they toss at them yeah why not. California Flight Project with there legendary songwriter Mr.J , Jerry J Johnson. He is a hotty and we know it they know its just a matter of time and God is on there side . Don’t believe all the hype just believe that the TRUTH will set it on FIRE>)
  
  Grammy 2008-09 they got a nod, 2010-11 got another nod. An with the new configuration they get another nod. They been on I Heart Radio / Clear Channel for well over 20 weeks and counting, with the Hip Hop/ R&B category TOP 20 with 4 , yeah thats right 4 HOT singles.. It is HISTORICAL they are generating a larger audience than Beyonce/ Lady Gaga/J Zee/ Kenya West as a INDY artist they have not resign. And main stream reporters are asking why did they wait so late. Well if they don’t know you better ask somebody. They are Hot. O my they are laughing all the way to the bank for a you to get a bailout ,loll. Hay you better check youself before you wreck yourself crazy they are the ONE and ONLY fight I bet on its a LOCK : CUTEST SMILE a classic it in any era
  Jerry J is my hotty he is made cute and his project is on hit.
  Jerry J &
  California Flight the winner is “Cutest Smile.”

  Best Female R & B Vocal Performance: Jennifer Hudson
  Best Traditional R & B Performance Best R & B Album: ‘I Remember Me’ Jennifer hudson
  Best R & B Song: I Remember Me
  Best Contemporary R & B Album: I Remember Me
  Jennifer Hudson will take home two awards in R & B
  Tony Bennett may beat out Adele, do not rule out his album. The songs on his album are really good.
- DJ
  
  I just hope Jackie Evancho gets nominated for best new artist. This girl is a world class talent at 11. Mature, yet pure vocals.
  Smooth slow vibrato , perfect pitch, huge range. Her tone quality is second to none.
- BD
  
  Best New Artist – Jackie Evancho. If you haven’t seen Dream with Me in Concert you have missed a masterpiece!
- luckboxx74
  
  Only 2 of you got it right. Foster the People have been getting a lot of exposure lately.
- Asanraymond
  
  Omg! Rihanna is the bomb although she doesnt rily recieve sum awards but her songs are always meaningful and am sure this year she’d storm the grammy awards hard cs rihanna navy is trending! Adele is anoda gud musician dat knows how
  2 use her voice and impress fans. She’s also gona take home some awards! Kudos 2 rihanna cos her new album talk that talk is hot. She’s gona soon be taking all the awards. So gaga, watchout.
- Sahil Maherali
  
  I think Drake should win atleast 1 this year with all the work that has gone into Headlines and Marvins room and Take Care all togther. I know Adele will take over but I feel Chris Brown will be the underdog. Also what about Justin Bieber for Under teh Mistletoe

  I think people are seriously underestimating the power of Gaga’s album. Remember she wrote all of her own songs which all have deep meaning about self-love and respect. Whereas adele’s albums is purely resultant from a bad break-up that makes me wanna cut myself (highly depressing) whenever I hear it. If you ask me Gaga should sweep this year’s grammys to make a big statement and honour a musician who truly understands the definition of equality and artistry. Gaga all the way for Born this way!!!

  re: Best New Artist
  I don’t now all the new artist out there, but I have heard a few. Some very good artist out here. As far as an artist that connects to the music and also has a unique style and an out of this world beautiful tone — Jackie Evancho. I suspect Jackie will not be recognized because I think lots of people think she is too young (10 OHN/DWN CD’s), now 11 and haven’t “paid her dues”. But we will see. I personally have never heard a more beautiful tone that Miss Evancho. The combination of a mature sound, smooth slow vibrato & vocal purity is so very rare and unique. Jackie is on of a kind.
