Various experts, including Recording Academy member Shae Universe, have offered their insights for the biggest categories.
It feels like a particularly high-profile Grammy season: Charli XCX, Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish, and Sabrina Carpenter are all expected to be in attendance.
The 2025 Grammy Awards will broadcast on CBS and stream live on Paramount+ beginning at 8:00 p.m. ET / 5:00 p.m. PT.
James' Prediction: Billie Eilish - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT This is likely to be between Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poets Department, but Eilish will pip Swift to the prize.
Mary's Prediction: Charli XCX - BRAT Maybe I'm too online or maybe I'm just still clinging to the final dregs of the 365 party girl moment, but it feels like Charli XCX could take the top prize.
