Those artists are full of potential and might—key word: might!—be able to grace the stage at the Grammys one day to give an acceptance speech. But, what about the artists who are currently popular? This year, there are a number of those artists who are planning on putting out new projects. And, when they do, we think that they'll definitely be up for awards at the 2014 Grammy Awards. So, we put together a list of 10 Artists Who Will Definitely Be Up For Grammy Awards Next Year. And, we also predicted which projects they'll be nominated for, which categories they'll be nominated in, and how good their chances are of actually winning.
