Grammy 2018 nominee predictions: Kendrick Lamar, Ed Sheeran set to dominate

When the 60th Annual Grammy nominations are announced Nov. 28, look for Ed Sheeran and Kendrick Lamar to be nominated in each of the top three categories — Album, Record, and Song of the Year. This would mark the second year in a row that a British pop star has squared off against a contemporary R&B or hip-hop star for Grammy glory.

Here are the likely nominees — and a few runners-up — in the “Big 4” categories, including Best New Artist. The winners will be announced in New York City on Jan. 28.
