Alabama Shakes

Fun.

Hunter Hayes
Label: Atlantic Records

The Lumineers
Label: Dualtone Music Group

Frank Ocean
Label: Def Jam 

Predictions:

Lauren: The Lumineers are popular for “Ho Hey” right? What else? And the only time I’ve heard that song is on commercials and every performance they do looks like someone put an Instagram filter over it. Frank. There’s no other choice. Who is Hunter Hayes?

Ernest: Fun. had all the hits, guys. They win this. Remember when Maroon 5 beat Kanye? 

David: Where's Chief Keef?

Lauren: WHERE'S SASHA GO HARD?

Foster: Where he should be: In jail. Also, if Frank O doesn’t win this, Odd Future is ethically obligated to run up on some “OFWGKTA IS FOR THE CHILDREN” type shit.

Insanul: Frank has an actual Best Album nod so I feel like he’s the heavy favorite.

Should Win: Frank Ocean.

Will Win: Frank Ocean.
