JAKARTA - Jelang perhelatan ajang musik terakbar sedunia, Grammy Awards 2023, berikut final nominasi dan pemenang masing-masing kategori berdasarkan prediksi Variety.

Grammy serupa dengan Oscar setidaknya dalam satu hal tahun ini - ini adalah kontes nyata di sebagian besar, jika tidak semua bidang teratas.

Pertanyaan yang paling sering digeser akhir-akhir ini adalah: Kontes antara siapa?

Musim gugur yang lalu, Variety menerbitkan sebuah cerita yang mengangkat kemungkinan bahwa penghargaan tahun 2023 bisa menjadi pertarungan sampai akhir antara Adele dan Beyonce, seperti pada tahun 2017.

Namun, berbicara tentang "As It Was", pasir tampaknya telah bergeser ke tempatnya semula.

Sekarang lebih banyak dilihat sebagai kontes antara Beyonce dan Harry Styles dalam tiga kategori semua genre di mana ketiga artis dinominasikan - rekor tahun ini, lagu tahun ini dan album tahun ini.

Itu tidak berarti bahwa Adele masih tidak bisa melakukannya di salah satu dari tiga kategori teratas itu atau bahkan berhasil menyapu; dia mungkin tetap menjadi favorit yang tenang, terutama di antara para pemilih yang lebih tua yang dulunya adalah mayoritas yang diam (dan sekarang, dengan upaya untuk mendiversifikasi dan menjadikan Recording Academy muda, mungkin menjadi minoritas yang kuat dan pendiam).

Tapi daun teh, dan percakapan dengan pemilih nyata, membuat kami percaya bahwa Styles akhirnya menghilangkan stigma boy-band, muncul dari belakang dan mendapatkan dukungan yang cukup untuk setidaknya membagi kategori teratas dengan Beyonce.

Adele, meskipun sangat dihormati, dipandang oleh banyak orang sebagai orang yang telah mendapatkan penghargaan yang cukup — sementara baik Harry Styles maupun Beyonc belum pernah memenangkan rekor atau album terbaik tahun ini. Itu sangat luar biasa dalam kasus Beyonce: Tahun ini, mungkin adalah tahunnya Beyonce untuk memenangkan empat kategori teratas karena ia pantas untuk itu.

Artis baru terbaik? Itu tebakan hampir semua orang, meskipun, di antara 10 nominasi, mudah untuk setidaknya mengesampingkan setengah dari mereka yang bahkan belum pernah didengar oleh sebagian besar pemilih Grammy.

Angin tampaknya mendukung Maneskin, Omar Apollo, Samara Joy, Anitta, atau Wet Leg. Namun ada kandidat keenam di kategori ini, Muni Long.

Prediksi akhir dalam kategori Grammy Awards tertentu adalah di bawah ini:
