Say what you will about the Grammy’s but…well. Just say what you will about the Grammy’s. Hate ’em or shrug at ’em, Spotify thinks it can predict ’em. Using a slew of user data, Spotify has rounded up the following predictions, and now, with the Grammy’s starting up, we’re about to see if they’re right.
