^ I'm aware of that, but bigger hit doesn't = winner. I'm saying that "Day N Nite" is becoming a hit now. I say "Heartless" wins before "Right Round," and if it was anyone to spoil, it would be Kid Cudi.

As of now Kanye is the frontrunner for Rap Solo Performance and Rap Album. The only person I see beating him in Rap Solo Performance is Kid Cudi!

Will Kanye submit his album to Rap Album? I seriously doubt he will. Even he does, they might not nominate or exclude his name from the list if his album doesn't fit the bill.

If he wants the nomination then he will submit to Rap album But IMO its a POP album so it SHOULD go POP but i doubt it.

Call me crazy but that Kid KIdu Guy will be a huge threat in the Rap field he has Kanye to back him up and a hit single.

Kid Cudi? LOL I think he's a contender for BNA. His album drops a few days before the cutoff date.

Diddy needs to finish paying child support. Nobody's checking for him or his wack music.

Will Jamie Foxx feat. T-Pain's "Blame It" be submitted to Best Rap/Sung Collaboration or Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals? I think it stands a better chance in the former.

Both Jamie and T-Pain are singing on "Blame It".

Instead of Pressing Play on Diddy's album, I Pressed Stop cause it was garbage minus the song with Christina Aguilera and that one with Nicole Scherziner.

Kid Cudi's Man on the Moon: The Guardians is dropping August 25. I expect this album to take a spot in Best Rap Album. I think Kid Cudi will be someone that dominates the Rap Field when nominations come out, much like Lupe Fiasco on his debut.

Early prediction: Kid Cudi takes out Kanye in Best Rap Solo Performance. Is that too far fetched?

I say yes. Kanye ALWAYS wins that category.The only time he lost was because he went against a favorite(Jay-Z). I don't see Kid Cudi beating him just yet.

That doesn't mean anything. I think people always put Kanye as the front-runner just because he's "always" winning. Someday, someone will beat him. He can't win everything. Kid Cudi is becoming popular each and every week off the strength of "Day N Nite." I would put him as a contender for Best Rap Album, Best Rap Solo, Best Rap Song, Best Rap Group, and Best New Artist. If Kanye was the automatic winner all the time, then it wouldn't make sense to nominate other artists. I say Kid Cudi is a threat to Kanye. I'm almost considering making him the front-runner.

That's true but I just don't see Kid Cudi beating a 12 time Grammy Winner. I think someonelse will do it though.

Anyway I think we should add Kanye/Kid Cudi to Rap Duo or Group for "Welcome To Heartbreak". I'm hoping "I Do It For Hip-Hop" gets a nomination!

I think Kanye West has way too many Grammys in such a short period of time. While that's a good thing, I think it's time to spread the wealth. If that causes Kanye to throw a hissy fit, then so be it. I think Kid Cudi would be a deserving recipient in Best Rap Solo Performance for "Day N Nite". I'm going to be rooting for him this whole Grammy season.

I do agree that "Welcome to Heartbreak" is a contender for Best Rap Group. I'm not sure if "I Poke Her Face" will be an album track, but I wouldn't mind seeing that nominated.

I'm rooting for "I Do It for Hip Hop" in Best Rap Group.

Rick Ross is a contender for Best Rap Album.

Kid Cudi would definitley be a worthy recipient of Rap Solo Performance. Kanye does have way too many Grammy's but I'm okay with MOST of his wins.

Count me in for those rooting for "I Do It For Hip-Hop" in Rap Duo or Group!
