-_-.... cardi/drake etc are nominated in the pop/rock categories because it's based on the POP charts... cardi and drake have been more successful on mainstream radio than almost all POP/ROCK artist this year so obviously they would be nominated. cardi and drake's music are both pop leaning also

Favorite Album Rap/Hip-HopDrake Lil Uzi Vert
Post Malone This doesn't seem right considering the trio of Post, Drake, and Cardi are ruling the other Rap/Hip-Hop categories. Ikr. I was shocked when Cardi wasn't nominated. IOP was much better than LIR2.

And they do have an overall category with Artist of the Year. If we're talking about the Mainstream Top 40 charts, then Dua and Halsey both outperformed Cardi (as did Taylor and Camila). New Rules was also the biggest hit on Mainstream Top 40 during the eligibility period. God's Plan also should've probably remained in the Rap/Hip-Hop category since it wasn't that big of a hit on Mainstream Top 40.

The AMAs really haven’t meant anything in years. Back in the early 00’s were really their last years of being relevant. Even before that it felt like for the most part they gave the award to someone in attendance.
They’ve had the Pop/Rock category always. That should have been changed a LOOONNNGGGGG time ago. I don’t think they’ve ever changed the categories actually.
Years ago they always said the awards/nominations were based off radio and retail. But then the people voted for the winners. How did people vote before the internet, I don’t know. There is also no time eligibility. The AMAs are essentially a People’s Choice Awards for music. It’s a popularity contest. It has nothing to do with who’s music was best received or reviewed.
Up until the early 00’s the AMAs rivaled the Grammys. I would never miss either but it took a downturn. I’ve prbably only watched 2 or 3 AMAs in the past 15 years whereas I’ve only missed 1 Grammy show.

I would think Gaga would be here bc doesn’t the movie come out right before? It would be great promo going into the second week of release especially if the first week does good numbers.

I want them to meet so Ariana can grovel for acceptance and they take a few pictures for the IG and dead this whole silly, unbalanced drama that doesn't exist beyond social media.

Fan voted shows like this Camila will win every category just like she did at the VMAS .. when the ama's and vmas opened up their awards to fan voting... the category winners became way more predictable.... thank God the grammys dont have fan voting cause camila cabello would sweep it lol

More performers announced, Ciara and Missy Elliot will be performing Level Up, Silk City will be joining Dua Lipa to perform Electricity and one other "bop" according to the AMA's Twitter (that other bop will likely be New Rules), and there's a lot of rumors that Post Malone and Ty Dolla $ign are gonna perform Psycho but nothings been confirmed.
