Once again, no noms
This isn’t the “best singers” awards. It’s the RECORDING Academy.^ that Kelsea and Maren noms are both headscratchers. Neither does much vocally.
For me personally it’s not as big of a fact that she didn’t get a nomination (as the only one I thought she could get was solo performance), it’s what DID get a nomination over her.Guess I'm the only one who wasn't expecting any nominations for Carrie, and I'm very ok with it. I mean, not the most successful first single, not great sales, not great charts, not even critic's album reviews...
and they put out weak recordings. it's country solo performance. If you can't do much vocally you should not be nominatedThis isn’t the “best singers” awards. It’s the RECORDING Academy.
Kelsea's song peaked at 20 on mediabase, 22 on Billboard now that is not successful.Yet she's nominated.Guess I'm the only one who wasn't expecting any nominations for Carrie, and I'm very ok with it.

Exactly this. Like, I'm sorry, what? Kelsea could have gotten a nom for "half of my hometown" or even "i quit drinking", but a generic pop bop? As you said, this would be like "southbound" getting nominated - which I am sure we all would be perplexed about as well.For me personally it’s not as big of a fact that she didn’t get a nomination (as the only one I thought she could get was solo performance), it’s what DID get a nomination over her.
I love Kelsea to pieces but “Heartfirst” for a Grammy? That’d be like them nominating “Southbound.”
I actually like Kelsea too, but what a wild choice for a vocal Grammy nod lol Sometimes I just don't get these shows. It's wild.i love Kelsea so i am not mad, but i feel like they will never nominate one of Carrie's album for Best Country Album let alone AOTY
AMA's are going to be dependent on how big of a turnout she had for voting via the website. TS had her beat on Twitter with votes, so it's going to rely on the website. Any other year she'd easily have both in the bag, but for whatever reason they nominated TS in both pop and country for the same things.I still think that the Cry Pretty album deserved a Grammy. Denim & Rhinestones is a great album, but I guess it's not Grammy material. I don't know anymore. Does anyone think she at least has a shot for the AMA award?
