With the 2021 GRAMMY Awards less than a week away, excitement continues to build for the event.
Every field is jam-packed with the who’s who in the music industry. Take for example the Song Of The Year category. Beyoncé, Roddy Ricch, Taylor Swift, Post Malone, Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish, H.E.R., JP Saxe and Julia Michaels are all nominated.
But who will win and who should win?
Join us below to find out…
Who will win: Taylor Swift -‘Cardigan’
Garnering six total nominations at this year’s ceremony, Swift is primed to pick up at least one trophy in the major categories, if not more. Released as the lead single from her acclaimed ‘Folklore’ album, ‘Cardigan’ is Swift’s fifth nomination in this category. So, eventually the odds will be in her favor and ‘Cardigan’s critical and commercial success appears to be swaying them her way.
Who should win: Taylor Swift – ‘Cardigan’
Love her or hate her, Swift gave the public a landmark album with ‘Folklore’ and ‘Cardigan’ is a prime example of this. The song showed a new angle Swift’s sentimentality with it being shown in a more mature and confident light. While the other nominees showcased their songwriting in their own way, Swift’s poetic prowess stands above the rest and goes on to prove how a small town girl from Pennsylvania is on her way to becoming the songwriting legened she was always meant to be.
Dark Horse: Beyoné – ‘Black Parade’
While Swift seems poised to pick up the trophy at this year’s ceremony, but the only other candidate that could stand in her way – based on songwriting alone – is Beyoncé. The larger-than-life icon delivered a combination of power, pride, and generosity by releasing her charity single ‘Black Parade.’ The song’s lyrics explore the rich beauty and strength that exists within Black culture. Coming off of the #BlackLivesMatter movement, Queen Bey not only helps drive the vehicle of change, but she could cruise past the competition to the winner’s circle to take home the trophy this year.

Hell no. Doja cat . dua took this year over
I feel newer pop artist will win to usher in a new era in music or I can see the academy jumpIng on the pc train and give everything to black women this year
Either won works for me
Beyonce claims to be a songwriter and she claims to have written all her hits but till today I still dont know who beyonce is as a songwriter.
someone like Taylor swift for example, u can tell who she is as a songwriter, same with mariah Carey but Beyonce, I dont know who she is as a songwriter. I still dont know her style of songwriting, her flow etc.
And the only thing we know Camila as is a RACIST FLOP with a gay bf who’s hatred for black ppl has gotten so bad that she now attends WEEKLY RACIST THERAPY 😭😭 Lawd pray for the girl 💀
The Critics are predicting Dua or Taylor and Roddy Rich to WIN this award. The Dark horse here is H.E.R . We shall hear March 14 who the winners. Beyoncé could cause an upset but she’s probably going to WIN in lesser categories such as R&B song or Rap performance with Megan!!
