Please welcome to the thread, Jack Antonoff! *Medley of assorted L*n*, Florence and Taylor songs plays* First of all I’d like to gracefully mention it’s cool that I wasn’t nominated this year, I get that 2021 was a stacked year and the talent before me, yikes! I won’t take it personally. I mean, it’s kinda lucky that I had the time to be here tonight. Every pop girl is basically fighting over me to get my name on their albums. Enough about me, the nominees for Producer of the Year are… Finneas James Ford Sega Bodega SG Lewis Yves Rothman And the winner is: Spoiler: Winner! SG Lewis (times, "Hot N Heavy", "Let Them Know", "Live to Survive") Full results: Finneas (2) James Ford (2) Sega Bodega (2) SG Lewis (8) Yves Rothman (0)

R&B category was absolutely stacked but i'm happy Wild Side won. And Aura was a nice little discovery for me!
And I knew it was always going to be a Kacey win but i'm proud of Allison Ponthier for getting the runner up in both categories. The little EP that could!
Please welcome to the thread: Doja Cat! Doja: I know what y’all are thinking: “wow, this is so nice of Doja to present this award even though the PJ Academy snubbed her.” Don’t get it twisted. I’m here to steal this trophy. Nah, I kid. You’ll catch me either collabing or listening to these nominees on repeat while on Instagram live. And the nominees for Best Rap Performance are... Bree Runway - HOT HOT Cardi B - Up Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow - Industry Baby Little Simz ft.

*Adele voice* Ladies and gentlemen, H.E.R. H.E.R.: Honestly, it’s tough being a Grammy darling. It’s so much pressure!

Tomorrow, we'll bring you the winners to the remaining categories: Best Alternative Album Best Alternative Song Best Pop Solo Performance Best Pop Duo / Group Performance Best Pop Vocal Album Best New Artist Song of the Year Record of the Year Album of the Year
So is the mess @BubblegumBoy was talking about in the General and Pop categories dd? Cause there's not much I disagree with so far.
You'll have to wait and see! Let's say there was a lot of discussion between @Sail On and I about SOTY and ROTY! So far the only injustice I'm mad at is Magdalena Bay missing out on Best Dance Album.
