Grammy 2025: Rolling Stone bet Taylor Swift takes album of the year

The specialized American magazine Rolling Stone bet that the singer Taylor Swift 35, will be the big winner of the Grammy Awards 2025 upon coming out of the main category of the ceremony, Album of the year.

Taylor Swift competes with the 11th album of his career, the “The Tortured Poets Department”, launched in April 2024. She disputes the category with Beyoncé (“Cowboy Carter”), André 3000 (“New Blue Sun”), Jacob Collier (“Djesse Vol. 4”), Sabrina Carpenter (“Short n ‘Sweet”), Chappell Roan (“The Rise and Fall of A Midwest Princess ”), Charli XCX (“ Brat ”) and Billie Eilish (“ Hit Me Hard And Soft ”).

Despite betting on the blonde’s victory, Rolling Stone says that who “should win” is Beyoncé. On the Gold Derby website, specializing in awards season, Beyoncé is named as a favorite in the main category of the night, with Billie Eilish (“Hit Me Hard and Soft”) and Chappell Roan (“The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess ). At Pop Shop Podcast, Billboard editors gave the favoritism to the voice of “Crazy in Love.”

Taylor Swift’s album, although not receiving praiseworthy Rolling Stone criticism as it was released, burst among the public. Just 10 days after the disclosure of 31 unreleased songs the album yielded to the Pop Star several historical achievements.

Taylor Swift hit her own historic feat of occupying the first stops of Billboard 200 (list that ranks the most heard songs in the United States) with the songs on the new album.

In less than 24 hours of its release, “The Tortured Poets Department” has become the most heard album on his debut day on Amazon Music, Apple Music and Spotify streaming platforms. In Spotify, Taylor Swift even broke the most heard artist records in a day and song more heard in one day, with “Fortnight”, partnership with Post Malone.

After the announcement of the nominations to the Grammy 2025 Taylor still became the female artist with greater number of nominations in the main category of the award that of Album of the year. She broke the draw with the singer Barbra Streisand 82, and now accumulates seven album nominations of the year.

Taylor Swift is even the only artist to win four times the album Grammy of the year. The feat was won after the blonde’s victory with “Midnights” (2022) in 2023. The other victories of the star took place with the records “Fearless” (2009), “1989” (2014) and “Folklore” (2020).

The albums of the singer who were nominated, but did not win, were “Red” (2012) and “Evermore” (2020).
