Album of the Year Odds

Odds taken Jan. 23, 2020

It is hard to deny the power and sway of Billie Eilish. Her debut studio album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?  won the 2020 Grammy Award for Album of the Year, one of five awards received throughout the night. She made history as the second-youngest person to ever sweep the ‘big four’ in one year: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Album of the Year and Best New Artist.

She also became the youngest artist, at 17 years old, to be nominated in all four categories.

Best New Artist Contenders

• [Jan. 26] Again, Billie Eilish is the year’s Best New Artist, as she claims her second Grammy of the night.
• [Jan. 23] Odds for Best New Artist still favor Billie Eilish, who saw her odds shift from -300 to -358, with Lizzo at +145 as our the next closest contender. Black Pumas saw significant movement from +4500 to +3600, but Eilish is going to be a hard one to beat
• [Jan. 20] All nominees for Best New Artist see their odds lengthen, save for Billie Eilish, who maintains +300 odds to win
• [Jan. 15] Billie Eilish still sits pretty with -300 to win Best New Artist, followed not-too-closely by Lizzo at +138
• [Nov. 22] With -175 right off-the-bat, Billie Eilish is the odds-on favorite to be this year’s Best New Artist

Song of the Year Contenders

• [Jan. 26] Bad Guy by Billie Eilish scoops up Song of the Year, adding to her collection of Grammys in 2020
• [Jan. 23] TIME’s Entertainer of the Year,  Lizzo has been working to this Grammy’s moment a long time. Following the release of her Rolling Stones cover, Truth Hurts moves past former lead contender Bad Guy  with +137 odds to win another jewel for Lizzo’s crown
• [Jan. 20] Norman F***ing Rockwell! sees odds worsen from+2033 to +2550, while Bring My Flowers Now by Tanya Tucker lengthens from +3100 to +3650; Eilish stays in the lead
• [Jan. 15] Eilish’s Bad Guy gains a nominal lead over Truth Hurts, with odds shortening to +153
• [Nov. 22] Bad Guy  and Truth Hurts enjoy equally attractive odds, both at +200 in contention for the Song of the Year award

Song of the Year Odds

Odds taken Jan. 23, 2020

The song of the year and record of the year are often confused one for another. Song of the Year, simply put, recognizes the composition and songwriting of the songs nominated. Billie Eilish (and her brother / song-writing partner / producer Finneas) won both in 2020!

Record of the Year Contenders

• [Jan. 26] A complete sweep couldn’t happen without Record of the Year, which goes to Billie Eilish for Bad Guy
• [Jan. 23] With a shift from +613 to +575 Truth Hurts has yet to push past Bad Guy or Old Town Road, but is not a contender to sleep on
• [Jan. 20] Both Bad Guy and Old Town Road have improved odds; +126 and -133, respectively
• [Jan. 15] Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus seem uncatchable, with -122 odds for Old Town Road
• [Nov. 22] Odds-on favorite Bad Guy (-125) gives Billie Eilish yet another great chance at a Grammy, as she is nominated – and leads in odds – in several categories

Record of the Year Odds

Odds taken Jan. 23, 2020

The Record of the Year celebrates and recognizes the artists, producers and engineers that created the songs nominated in this category. Quite often Song of the Year and Record of the Year will share some crossover, and while a win in one category does not always guarantee a win in the other – it can be a pretty good indicator.
