Album of the Year
Beck, Morning Phase
Beyonce, Beyonce
Ed Sheeran, x
Sam Smith, In The Lonely Hour
Pharrell Williams, Girl

Prediction: Beyonce, Beyonce

Winner: Beck, Morning Phase

I’m almost certain that Sam Smith with be awarded with Best New Artist, since he is also nominated in the three other major awards (which doesn’t happen often), but I don’t think he will win any of them. I can already eliminated Meghan Trainor from winning anything right? Record and Song of the Year could go to a few people, but I’m pretty comfortable with my choices. For Album of the Year, all the nominees I would be fine with seeing them win. I feel like it should be Beyonce’s self titled album, but Beck and Pharrell are the kind of artists that could get the votes.

Sam Smith, In The Lonely Hour

Prediction: Sam Smith, In The Lonely Hour

Winner: Sam Smith, In The Lonely Hour

Can Katy Perry win her first Grammy? I hope so, for her sake so everyone can stop with the jokes (now all we need is a Oscar for Leo). If Sam Smith can’t win Album of the Year, I hope he can get Pop Vocal Album.

Result: 2/7
