Make your predictions for what will happen in the world of music and music adjacent pop culture events and activities!
Will Taylor continue to dominate or will her era of Eras finally start to subside?
Who will make comebacks in 2024? Anyone completely unpredictable? Iβm looking at you Jon Secada and Crystal Waters.
Will AI make a move and score a hit without the presence of life?
Who will flop out of the blue? Duaβs next project? Maybe Eilish is over?
Will one of the big award shows fold? Maybe the Roll n Roll Hall of Fame will close? Or Billboard will say, nah, we done.
Predict it all right here and in 12 months, weβll check back and seen whose absurd predictions were actually correct!

I made this prediction back in the summer, but I was thinking that Justin Timberlake would release a new album next year and it would give him a small comeback, especially when Timbaland said the album would be like βFSLS 2.0.β kind of thing. Butβ¦ considering the recent news about the abortion and stuff still being fresh in peopleβs minds, I feel like it will still come out in 2024 but the reaction to it wonβt be what Justin wouldβve hoped.

An artist will have at least 10 songs on the year end list this year. Morgan Wallen had 8 in 2023.

- Taylor will save the remaining two TV's until 2025, and will instead release a new album sometime during the year similar to what she did with Midnights in 2022.
- Tate McRae will score a few more big hits.
- Jack Harlow's "Lovin' on Me" will chart high on the year-end list for next year.
- Noah Kahan's "Stick Season" will become at least a top 10 pop radio hit.

Camila Cabello will release a new album in the late spring and the lead single will be a multiweek #1. The other singles will make the top 20. BLACKPINK will release a new album in the fall and they will collab with a popular Usa artist and they will finally get a decent radio hit. Ariana will release a new album before the summer and the lead single will be a huge #1 hit. Ariana will also get another #1, and a couple of top 10s.Dua Lipa's next single after Houdini will be her 1st Billboard #1 and she will have a couple more top 20 hits after that. A classic song from a legendary artist will become a huge #1 hit again because of Tik Tok.A female artist who was popular over 20 years ago will have a successful comeback.

- AI will be revealed and exposed to have already scored a prior hit
- Blood will be spilled over Taylor Swift tickets

- AI will be revealed and exposed to have already scored a prior hit I like this one. Good prediction that I also think could happen in 2024. Some other predictions: - Rihanna will continue ngaf about music while her bank account continues to grow - Gaga will release a half-ass era (but the album will probably still be good) with a music video or two before promo begins for the Joker 2. The first single will be a short-term hit. - Dua Lipa will have a banner 2024, just because people are ready to put her in a coffin over the performance of "Houdini". The hits are coming. - Taylor will release Reputation TV in May. It won't generate any hits on its own but will do 1+ million and remain in the top 10 of the album chart for the rest of the year. - Taylor will drop a one-off single as part of a soundtrack or something later in the year. Debut TV won't come this year but clues will begin popping up for an early 2025 release, where it will outdo expectations and be well-received because she'll have pulled out all the stops for it. (somehow it might also end up as the biggest TV because that's where she's at right now). - Midnights doesn't win Album of the Year at the Grammys. - A 90s star (as in, someone who only had a couple hits in the 90s) makes a randomly major yet brief but comeback in 2024. - Billboard makes a controversial change to one of their charts - probably the Hot 100, that probably makes sense but angers a lot of Pulse's chart-watchers. - The CHR/Pop radio format continues to move toward a hits-format and away from new and current songs. It's not drastic but longevity records continue to be broken because they're not letting go. (this barely counts as a prediction btw). - Ariana Grande's new album underperforms but she still manages a "Flowers"-sized hit all the same. - A disposable pop-star (not sure who, Camila, Meghan Trainer, someone like that) makes a complete left-turn and takes a risk with an album that wins them critical support - Lil Nas X's new singles don't take off but he comes back with a new album in the summer, led by a poppier first single, that becomes his hit this year. - One of the major award shows (VMAs, AMAs, Billboard awards?) announced their end. - Country and country-adjacent like Americana folk (Noah Kahan, Zach, etc) is the year's top musical genre thanks to streaming and tiktok.
