The year is close to an end but that doesn’t mean the awards shows are over. On Dec. 12, the Billboard Awards 2024 will take place. They will feature some of the biggest names in the industry up for honors in different categories and genres. These are the 31st Billboard Music Awards.
Jelly Roll, Tyla Set, and Coldplay have already been announced as performers. Will Taylor Swift be in attendance? Her Eras tour concluded on Dec. 8 in Vancouver so she could be free.
The top artist category is absolutely loaded. Will Swift win her 40th BMA? Will Drake break the tie with the pop queen by winning his 40th or will Morgan Wallen, Zach Bryan, or Sabrina Carpenter surprise by earning top artist honors? Bryan, by the way, leads everyone with 21 nominations in 18 categories.
There currently is a tie for the most BMAs won between Swift and Drake. Each has come away thus far from the awards with a total of 39 wins. Justin Bieber is next with 26 honors.
BetUS, America’s favorite sportsbook offers odds on many categories, and here are some of the top ones:
- Top Country Artist: Morgan Wallen leads the way at -600. He is a prohibitive favorite over Luke Combs, Bryan, Post Malone, and Chris Stapleton.
- Top Latin Artist: A significant quintet of nominees in this category. Karol G is -150 as the top pick. Right behind are Peso Pluma +300, and. Bad Buddy +350. Also in the category are Fuerza Regina and Junio H.
The 2024 Billboard Latin Music Awards date was October. Bad Bunny won the overall top artist category at that event. Could that foreshadow a win for him at the Dec. 12 awards show? Or will it be Karol G, who won eight awards overall and the Global 200 Latin Artists of the Year?
- Top Rap Artist: The mortal enemies Drake (+250) and Kendrick Lamar (-250) are 1-2 in the odds. Travis Scott, Metro Boomin, and Future are also in the category. It will be interesting to see if Lamar and Drake cross paths at the event, which will be televised and is offering a multi-platform viewing experience.

Being the favorite in a category doesn’t assure a win. This is no different than a sports event or a horse race. The nominees are competing against each other and voters can be unpredictable when it comes to results.
Wallen is a huge favorite and country star but Bryan has had an incredible year and has to be a tempting play at +900.
Stray Kids are -500. However, they will be tested by the legendary band Blink-182, which is a nice price at +600. In the top duo/group category.
Bryan may be the second choice in the country but he is odds-on in the rock artist category, listed at -500. Jelly Roll and Linkin Park are both +600. It will be hard to see Bryan not winning one or both of the categories. He has been forced on the road and into the business in 2024.
