- Taylor Swift is favored at -200 to win Album of the Year for Folklore.
- Taylor Swift is also favored at -150 to win Song of the Year for Cardigan.
- Megan Thee Stallion is favored at -325 to win Best New Artist.
LOS ANGELES – The 2021 Grammy Awards will be kicking off Sunday, March 14, and entertainment betting fans are placing heavy action on the main awards.
The Best New Artist, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year awards are seeing a lot of attention from Grammy betting fans, with Taylor Swift and Megan Thee Stallion seeing the most wagers placed on them.
With entertainment betting, on the Grammy Awards, players can turn the major musical event into true winning potential.
Betting On The Grammys
The first betting line seeing a lot of attention at online sportsbooks is the Best New Artist category. Megan Thee Stallion is favored to claim the coveted award.
Odds To Win Best New Artist
- Megan Thee Stallion -325
- Phoebe Bridgers +350
- Doja Cat +650
- Kaytranada +1600
- Noah Cyrus +2200
- D Smoke +3300
- Ingrid Andress +3300
- Chika +5000
Megan is arguably the biggest rapper out this side of Drake currently and this is evident by the success of her 2020 Good New album pulling in 100,500 equivalent album units in its first week of release.
In addition, Megan joined Cardi B on the hit single W.A.P which went on to debut at number one on the Billboard Charts, giving Megan her second top 10 single.
With the success she saw in 2020, it is understandable why fans would be leaning so heavily in her favor to win Best New Artist.
Another name to look out for in this betting line, however, is the +650 short odds on Doja Cat. Doja Cat has seen a lot of success in 20020 as well.
Doja’s hit single Say So peaked at number one the Billboard Charts, and the songstress continued to gain fandom towards the end of 2020.
This last-minute momentum could see longshot betting fans cashing in big should voters lean in her favor at the Grammy Awards.
Taylor Swift’s Reigns Continues
The next two categories, Album of the Year and Song of the Year are the most coveted awards in the industry, and Taylor Swift is the heavy favorite for both.

Starting with Album of the Year, Swift’s Folklore has the most attention at online sportsbooks.
Odds To Win Album Of The Year
- Folklore (Taylor Swift) -200
- Future Nostalgia (Dua Lipa) +250
- Everyday Life (Coldplay) +1200
- Djesse Vol. 3 (Jacob Collier) +1300
- Hollywood's Bleeding (Post Malone) +1300
- Black Pumas (Black Pumas) +2000
- Chilombo (Jhené Aiko) +2000
- Women In Music Pt. III (Haim) +2000
Folklore was a huge success for Swift and managed to see 615,000 albums sold in the first week, the largest of 2020.
In addition, the album becomes the first million-selling album of 2020, further showing the impact Swift has in the industry. Sports betting fans expect her impact to also affect judges.
“If there's one thing that Swift has proven throughout her career, it's that she refuses to be put in a box. Her ever-evolving sound took her from country darling to pop phenom to folk's newest raconteur—a transition that, on paper, seems arduous,” said Taylor Weatherby, writer for the Grammys. “But for Swift, it was seamless and resulted in perhaps her most defining work yet. And folklore’s radiance relies on three of Swift’s songwriting tools: heartfelt balladeering, autobiographical writing, and character-driven storytelling.
This also why Swift is favored for Song of the Year, with her hit single Cardigan debuting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
Odds To Win Song Of The Year
- Cardigan (Taylor Swift) -150
- Don't Start Now (Dua Lipa) +300
- Black Parade (Beyonce) +500
- Everything I Wanted (Billie Eilish) +900
- Circles (Post Malone) +1800
- The Box (Roddy Ricch) +2000
- I Can't Breathe (H.E.R) +2200
- If The World Was Ending (JP Saxe Feat. Julia Michaels) +2200
What both these betting lines have in common, however, is the second shortest odds going to Dua Lipa. Dua Lipa had a successful year in her own right and could be a dark horse pick to take the win in either category.
Dua Lipa’s Don’t Start Now single is actually favored at -200 for record of the year, and could potentially win both categories.
Her album, Future Nostalgia has also garnered praise from both critics and fans, which could help lead to an upset at online sportsbooks.
Swift has also won Album of the Year twice already, which may create voter fatigue and lead to voters looking for a new artist to vote for.
Longshot bettors should look to cash in on the Dua Lipa odds before Grammy night.
