I assume that they will not have that database to show the artists advancing into the next round like last year? That was a nice bit of transparency for us fans.

She has been out for six years, but her big breakthrough hasn't happened until now and most people look at her as a new artist Even after all the press Lauren Alaina got from being on American Idol in 2011. That would be like Carrie Underwood's breakthrough year happening in 2011.

You might not, but you need to understand why others look at her as a new artist. It sounds like your being a little ignorant and don't understand why someone would look at Lauren Alaina as a new artist.

This year's show will likely focus heavily on ML love. I think the album + "Tin Man" will all see some major love. I think Lauren Alaina will pick up 3 noms -- Female, Album, and New Artist. And I think EOTY will come down to being between Eric Church and Chris Stapleton. If Lauren's album gets nominated over Pardi's album I'll be mad.

She will be nominated with Luke Combs, Brett Young, Jon Pardi, & Dustin Lynch. He's got a good shot to get nominated. If you remember Justin Moore had 3 albums out and he won ACM new male artist. Midland, Chris Lane, Michael Ray & Dylan Scott are possibilities as well. I just don't see her getting an Album of the year nomination.

If any non new artist gets nominated for new artist I think it will be Lauren or Pardi or both. With that being said I hope it'll be Combs, Pearce and midland with them.

I really hope Keith Urban gets nominated for Best New Artist! If anyone has earned a shot at that category this year, it is him!

They should almost have two separate awards - Best New Artist for true new artists. It really is an accomplishment to have a break through when you are a truly new artist. Then, have a "Breakthrough" award or something, that you can win only once in your career. That should be limited to artists who haven't won New Artist, and haven't been nominated for any of the 'big' CMA awards (Male, Female, Group, Entertainer, Album, Single, etc.).
The Horizon Award captured the spirit of that, but when they renamed the award, they didn't refine the criteria like they should have, imo.

In the eyes of most Lauren Alaina is considered a new artist. Considering that the likes of Dustin Lynch will be considered, and that Lee Brice was considered new for like an eight year period, it is not at all stretch to put Alaina in that group.

Lauren is new to the eyes of many fans of Country music and radio listeners. Artists get nominated after breaking through with a hit, regardless if they've been around a few years.
I remember when Gary Allan was nominated for the 2003 CMA Horizon award and his debut single was 7 years prior lol.
