Beyonce’s Cowboy Starter is a leading contender for Grammys 2025
According to Variety, it appeared the 2025 Grammy Award for Album of the Year contest would be a three-way race between Beyonce, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift. However, Chappell Roan's 2023 release, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, surged into the spotlight as a strong contender, making it a likely four-way race.
With Grammy voters receiving their first ballots, the media outlet predicted the nominees for the top four all-genre categories. While only eight artists or tracks would be nominated in each category, Variety had identified 16 potential contenders, highlighting their picks for the eight most likely to make the final cut when the Recording Academy announces the nominees on November 8, 2024.
Although not guaranteed, Variety analyzed that Beyonce's Cowboy Carter, Sabrina Carpenter's Short N’ Sweet, and Charli XCX's Brat are all in the mix, alongside Billie Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft and Ariana Grande's Eternal Sunshine.

Post Malone's F-1 Trillion might also vie for the top spot, as is Chappell Roan's The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, which has gained significant momentum. Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poets Department rounds out the list.
Despite being nominated for her last four solo albums, Beyonce has yet to win Album of the Year, a fact that remained one of the most talked-about frustrations. With Cowboy Carter, a fifth nomination is almost speculated.
