Since this turned out to a "Guess who's going to win AOTY 2012":
I love Kanyes and Taylors album. Adeles is okay but I don't like Lykke Li.
It looks like all of them deserve the award though.
We still have to hear BTW and I wouldn't say it has no chance especially since the Grammys aren't only about the quality anymore.
Im not convinced that Born This Way wont make AOTY. We havent heard the material yet but its undeniable that grammy voters love Gaga, otherwise an 8 track EP wouldnt have made AOTY and an album track(dance in the dark) wouldnt have made best dance recording.
Adele and Kanye are going to be up for AOTY. I am pretty sure it is going to be a tough call, but I am willing to bet Adele wins. It is only March though, and we have many albums to hear before submissions are closed.
Taylor Swift might get nominated, but I dont think she is going to win. I don't think people should dismiss Rihanna either. Not only is her album a huge seller, but it has done well with the critics. I would not be surprised if she were to get nominated..though I don't think she'd win
