Rosé's APT. featuring Bruno Mars has recently been included in the Total Music Awards list of early contenders for the 2026 Grammy Awards.
The eligibility window for the 2026 Grammy Awards extends from 1 September 1, 2024, to August 30, 2025. The song, released on October 18, 2024, falls well within the eligibility window.
According to the list, Rosé's song is set to earn a nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, but it also deserves the Record of the Year award.
Fans flocked to the internet to express their enthusiasm and excitement about the news. They praised Rosé and stated that the song and she certainly deserve this honor.
"She deserves it," a fan reacted.
Fans continued to commend the song, manifesting the win in the Grammy Awards 2026.
"Wawww can’t wait .. I wish she win awards. This song deserves to win," commented a fan.
"GUYS I'VE HAD A DREAM LAST NIGHT THAT ROSIE WILL WIN THE GRAMMY NEXT YEAR AND PERFORMING IN GRAMMY. I SWEARR," remarked another fan.
"I dont see any reasons why APT will not win any grammy awards..this is absolutely the song of the decade," wrote another fan on X.
BLINKs also discussed Rosé's chances of securing the Grammy Award; one even suggested a way to achieve this.
"It’s gonna be tough because of the length of time between the release and voting by the academy, BUT the academy absolutely LOOOOOVES Bruno and he wins Best Pop Duo/Group every. time. he’s been nominated, and since he and Gaga won past year - it should be in the bag," reacted a BLINK.
"It is 90% to win a Grammy cause other than the impact. Of course other songs can come along the way but it is one of the few songs to this generation to have a CULTURAL impact which is rare and mainly the first criteria to win a Grammy. That’s why it’s not just about popularity," said another fan on X.
"We need to push Rosé more! Hopefully her Deluxe comes with big surprises and imagine a small tour in spring like the tour Bruno Mars did! Little amount of shows, but with stadiums with big capacity and layout!" exclaimed another fan.
