Lordes mellow drama. Bruno mars. Lorde is the dark horse here because its a pop album. My vote goes to jay . To jayz . Yeah. 13th album. It was the rawest album hes ever done. Incredible. So i think jay gets it this year. Last category. Best new artist. Khaled, Julia Michaels who do you think is going to take home the prize . The inside track is sza. Shes the new lauren hill. Five nominations, her vocals and deliver is incredible. This is Julia Michaels debut single to have received a song of the year nomination. Thats huge. Its going to be tight one between sza and Julia Michaels.

But two months later insisted the idea of firing mueller never crossed his mind. I havent given it any thought. Ive been reading about it from you people. You say im going to dismiss him.
