Justin Bieber\u2019s return to the Grammy stage has been a long time coming. After taking a four-year break from music, the Canadian singer-songwriter made a surprise comeback last summer when he released his seventh and eighth studio albums, Swag<\/a> and Swag II, within just 56 days of each other. Swag II, which is considered a double album due to its inclusion of 23 new songs on top of the 21 original Swag tracks, features singles \u201cLove Song\u201d and \u201cSpeed Demon.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cYukon\u201d singer, who\u2019s up for four Grammys at this year\u2019s awards show, including Album of the Year, is also set to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April.<\/p>\n

Following the release of her 2024 single \u201cDiet Pepsi,\u201d Addison Rae soon established herself as a serious student of pop divas past. She went on to release her self-titled debut album, Addison,<\/a> last summer, which featured infectious synth-pop tracks like \u201cAquamarine\u201d and \u201cFame Is a Gun,\u201d before embarking on her first-ever headlining tour in August. In addition to performing on the Grammys stage on Sunday, Rae, who\u2019s established herself as pop music\u2019s newest \u2018it\u2019 girl, could also take home the award for Best New Artist.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s such an honor to be recognized \u2014 not just as a new artist, but as an artist at all \u2014 by the Recording Academy,\u201d the 25-year-old singer said of her nomination. \u201cAnyone who has ever dreamed of doing what they love but feared they wouldn\u2019t be taken seriously knows how much this kind of moment means. I\u2019ve definitely battled with that doubt before, wondering if this could ever be possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Olivia Dean was catapulted to superstardom when her infectious R&B track \u201cMan I Need\u201d became a viral soundbite on TikTok. From there, Dean\u2019s star power continued to increase as she unveiled additional hits like \u201cSo Easy (To Fall in Love)\u201d and \u201cNice to Each Other.\u201d Her second studio album, The Art of Loving, was released in September and was counted among Rolling Stone\u2019s<\/a> and NME\u2019s<\/a> lists of best albums of 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201chad to take a sec to process this but i\u2019ve been nominated for a Grammy,\u201d Dean wrote on Instagram<\/a> after learning of her Grammy nomination. \u201cthank u world and the @recordingacademy ! no words.\u201d<\/p>\n
