A Seat at the arable could've gotten nominated for Best R&B Album too and Cranes could've nabbed a Best R&B Song nomination. Monica, Usher, Alicia and Maxwell didn't deserve anything for their albums. I'm actually surprised Closer isn't nominated for Record of the Year and that One Dance got completely shut out everywhere even tho I hate that song. Make Me was cute but didn't deserve anything and Perfect Illusion could've gotten a Best Pop Solo Performance nod. ANTI is NOT worthy of AOTY when every other album nominated sold its US' sales total in the first week. Half of the album is completely fillers, the only really good songs are Work, Needed Me, Kiss It Better, Love on the Brain, Sex with Me, Woo and Desperado. Views was trash, only had like 7-8 good songs, Coloring Book should've been the rap/hip-hop album to be nominated for AOTY. 5H definitely deserved a Best Pop Duo/Group Performance nod for Work From Home. Ariana's nominations aren't deserving at all. Sia's definitely are and her team should've pushed Alive more because that song could've been a top Record of the Year and Pop Solo Performance contender. More than likely that random white man will win AOTY
