Grammys

How many Grammys will this year’s most-nominated artist Beyoncé add to her mantle? Will Grammy voters go gaga for Lady Gaga? And will the Black Eyed Peas’ commercial success translate into recognition from their peers?

We asked a group of artists, songwriters, and producers to make their Grammy predictions in eight categories. This year’s all-star panel includes R&B songstress JoJo, singer-songwriter Sean “The Pen” Garrett, Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton, Young Money’s Shanell, songwriter Rico Love, producer Jim Jonsin, singer-songwriter Kevin Cossom, and Roc Nation signee J. Cole.

Find out who they think will go home with music’s most-coveted award at Sunday’s 52nd Annual Grammy Awards.
