Will We See a Grammy Nomination for Rihanna?

by Lauren Croteau on December 1st, 2008

The nominees for the 51st Annual Grammy Awards will be announced on December 3rd, but will we be seeing a nomination for Rihanna? After the numerous smash hits that she’s delivered to listening audiences this year, it’s hard to imagine Rihanna coming home without a trophy to put on her mantle.

I don’t expect “Take a Bow” to be among the nominees for Record of the Year, but it may be in the R&B category. It did jump 52 spots, all the way to #1, on the Billboard Hot 100 this year. Though that single did great, her song with T.I., “Live Your Life“, has broken records and has done better than most, if all, the collaborations in 2008, so I think at least, they could be nominated for best R&B collab. At the very least.

I do expect “Disturbia” to be nominated. It has done so well on all the charts, and has been named by many as the “Thriller” of it’s time.  I think it could be nominated for Record of the Year simply for how popular it has become.  With competition like Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl“, Coldplay’s “Viva La Vida“  and Leona Lewis‘ “Bleeding Love“, it’s hard to say she’ll win with any of her songs, but I’d say she’s got quite a great chance.

So, we’ll see happens! If Rihanna goes home with nothing, I’ll be very, very surprised. What do you think? Does Rihanna have a chance at a Grammy this year?
