Nicky Riordan

She sees the potential.

And she's waiting until that hair grows back.

She's a smart businesswoman.

She's investing properly.

I just feel like things are good for them.

Like, they just seem good, you know?

I had Tom and Zendaya as one of my predictions for last year.

I'm locking in Timothy and Kylie for this year.

Number three, I feel like Olivia Deen is going to win Best New Artist.

I just feel like she has so much momentum right now.

I feel like everybody is just talking about her so much.

I also think she kind of benefited from having an album that came in at the end of the year and the Sabrina tour happened towards the end of the year.

Like, I don't know why I just feel in my soul that she's also very much like a

a real music lovers you know like i see the sort of like music snob type people being really really into her and i would be ecstatic if she won i freaking love it she was in my top five favorite albums on spotify or most listened albums on spotify rap so and that was another thing that was really shocking to me about her i saw so many people have them have olivia dean on her spotify raps and i was shocked because the album came out so recently

Like, it's insane that she's had such rapid growth and, like, is really sticking with people in a way that I think could really just take her home and win Best New Artist.

Also going off that prediction, number four, we have sort of this, like, jazz pop resurgence is what I'm calling it.

Or just this rising influence of jazz in pop music.

I'm talking the Leves, the Claro music.

Even a bit of Lillia Dean, there's, you know, a bit of that jazz music in there.

I just feel like this use of like brass instruments and saxophone, woodwind, stringed instruments even like it felt like it just completely fell out of pop.
