For a true music lover, music sometimes is not just about appreciation and enjoyment, it is also about whether the music he is crazy for is recognized by the world or some authorities. And what is the proper way to rate the music and prove that the music is recognized by the majority. I think the best solution is prize presentation which can not only find out the prominent production out of the vast music market but also explore the performer with high potentiality.

What are the most famous music awards in the world and what are the most prominent music in the world for 2021? Please check the article for the answer.


Brief Introduction of Grammy Awards

People might be familiar with the trophy of the music award title. It is a glided gramophone that draws full attention of the mass. The Grammy Award , stylized as GRAMMY, was originally called Gramophone Award. It is an award presented by the Recording Academy to recognize achievement in music industry. Among the three networks’ major music award held annually( the other two are American Music Awards in fall, and Billboard Music Awards in summer), Grammys are the first and biggest award. It features not only the performances by prominent artists but also the presentation of those awards that have a more popular interest.

The first Grammy Awards ceremony was held on May 4, 1959 to respect the performer with high music achievements in the last year. Later in 2012, the Grammy award categories went through a tremendous revolution and many awards title were either revoked or added.

Talking about the entry process and selection of nominees, more than 100 experts from the recording industry are carrying on the selection work. Once the music work is entered, it is determined by the experts to which category it should go. And the result lists of the entries are then sent to the voting members, each of whom may vote to nominate in the general fields (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist) and in no more than nine out of 30 other fields on their ballots. The 5 recordings which earn the most votes in each category enter the final voting.


Grammy Predictions 2021: Album of the Year Nominees

The nominees entering the final voting are the most catchy to the audiences. What catches most of the attention recently is the result of the 2021 Grammys. As we mention in the article, there are four general fields in Grammy, each of which is conceptually different with another one. Regarding the award for Album of the Year, it is awarded for a whole album, and the award is presented to the artist, featured artist, songwriter, producer, recording engineer, and mastering engineer for that album. 

Which albums are nominated on the list of 2021 Grammy predictions? The sequence of the list below doesn’t well represent its real ranking.

No 1. "Everyday Life" by Coldplay

As the easy-listening pop-rock, the content of the album focuses on humanitarianism and emphatically multicultural. It is an integrity of styles like West African church music, Nigerian afrobeat, and Sufi qawwali music. Given the band’s long and fairly respectable career, it worth a position of the nominees.

No 2. "Djesse Vol. 3" by Jacob Collier

As combined by frantic beats, electronic flourishes, and R&B melodies, "Djesse Vol. 3" is the first album in history to receive an album of the year nomination without charting on the Billboard 200. We cannot neglect the situation when large number of people would ask “who is Collier” in Grammy when the award is announced. It is awkward for the producer to be unrecognized by the people even though his production wins the nominee for its quality.

No 3. "Hollywood's Bleeding" by Post Malone

Released 6 days after the eligibility cutoffs, the album became the best-selling album of 2019, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data. "Hollywood's Bleeding" is a showcase of versatility for the producer’s unmatched ear for pop hooks and shrewd use of auto tune. What makes Post Malone appealing to these voters is that he seems to represent the current dominance of those genres.

No 4. "Black Pumas (Deluxe)" by Black Pumas

"Black Pumas" can be defined as a vibe which can be described as Alabama Shakes the best way. You will be attracted by it and bop your head listening to it. "Black Pumas" is a deeply pleasant listening experience but except "Black Moon Rising" and "Colors", the others are hardly with any true standout or bright moments. Further more, this nominations is somehow like Collier on some level and treated as a left-field.

More albums which are not mentioned and might be more outstanding than the ones we list can be checked in the specific Grammy website. Talking about the solution to enjoy the album with DRM-free on Spotify, just check it out in the following passages.
