The teaser showed footage of each musician performing, including some clips from previous Grammy nights. The whole thing definitely helped to prompt excitement on social media, where some fans had not realized that the award show was already upon them.
“I’m excited for this lineup!” one fan wrote. Another added: “If there was not pandemic then Grammy stage would be BTS concert. Periodt!” while a third wrote: “Too bad that pandemic is still here. But I’m so happy bangtan get their stage!!”
This year’s Grammys will be hotly contested in just about every category, especially since musicians had little to do besides work on their records in seclusion during the coronavirus pandemic. The contenders for Record Of The Year are “Black Parade” by Beyoncé, “Colors” by Black Pumas, “Rockstar” by DaBaby Featuring Roddy Ricch, “Say So” by Doja Cat, “Everything I Wanted” by Billie Eilish, “Don’t Start Now” by Dua Lipa, “Circles” by Post Malone and “Savage” by Megan Thee Stallion Featuring Beyoncé.
The nominees are Album of the Year are Chilombo by Jhené Aiko, Black Pumas by Black Pumas, Everyday Life by Coldplay, Djesse Vol. 3 by Jacob Collier, Women in Music Pt. III by Haim, Future Nostalgia by Dua Lipa, Hollywood’s Bleeding by Post Malone and Folklore by Taylor Swift. Many commenters spent Sunday afternoon unofficially campaigning for their personal favorite online, hoping that the Recording Academy would make the “right” choice.
Fans will have to tune in live to see. The 2021 Grammy Awards will air live at 8 p.m. ET on CBS. A premiere ceremony hosted by Jhené Aiko will kick things off early, starting at 3 p.m. ET on Grammy.com. Subscribers to live TV streaming services should also be able to watch the awards.
