Will ladies Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams go head-to-head on the Billboard 200 next week? Is Sabrina Carpenter Qualified For A Grammy Nomination? Keep watching to find out!
Tetris Kelly:
There are some battles going on in the music biz. Who could take the top spot on the Billboard 200? And who qualifies for the Best New Artist Grammy? Let's break it down. Gracie Abrams' sophomore album 'The Secret of Us' is expected to secure a solid streaming debut, but it's set to fall in sales to see if it can best her bestie, Taylor Swift, and her nine week run with the “The Department of Tormented Poets”. With Gracie's vinyl versions and Taylor's CD versions, it's anyone's game. When it comes to the Best New Artist Grammy, there are a lot of musicians that fans are clamoring for, but who are eligible for the award? Sabrina Carpenter currently holds the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100. She has never been nominated for a Grammy and has been nominated for Best New Artist three times. He's entered twice, in 2017 and 2024. So, it's fair game. The same cannot be said for Tate McRae. While he's had a stellar year with “Greedy” topping the Global 200 and the Global 200 outside the US, he's entered the Best New Artist category for the past three years, so he won't qualify. We'll find out all the Grammy nominations on November 8th.
