SZA leads the pack with nine nominations at the 2024 Grammy Awards, which certainly speaks to all that this amazing R&B vocalist has accomplished over the last year or so.
And she certainly could end up winning enough awards to fill a cabinet or two during “Music’s Biggest Night.”
Or, as shocking as it might sound, she could come up empty-handed when the trophies are handed out.
Yes, the level of competition at this year’s Grammy Awards is remarkably impressive. That’s especially true in the three of the evening’s biggest categories — album, song and record of the year — where SZA will go up against such heavyweights as Lana Del Rey, Olivia Rodrigo, Jon Batiste, Billie Eilish, Miley Cyrus and, as you can probably guess, Taylor Swift.
So many great artists. So many compelling storylines.
And we won’t know how it all turns out until the last award is handed out on Feb. 4 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Hosted by comedian Trevor Noah, the show can be watched live starting at 5 p.m. on CBS and Paramount+.
Yet, that won’t stop us from trying to predict who will win the biggie “general field” categories, where artists from all different genres compete for top honors. Besides the three mentioned above, there is also the hotly contested best new artist category, where hip-hop star Ice Spice will square off against country/rap talent Jelly Roll, R&B/pop singer Victoria Monét and others.
Here are predictions for who will take home Grammy gold. Beyond the awards, the show will also feature performances by Dua Lipa, Eilish, Rodrigo, Luke Combs, Travis Scott, SZA, Joni Mitchell and others along with U2 livestreaming from the the Las Vegas Sphere.
Follow all the action beginning at 5 p.m. on CBS and Paramount +.
