(The current record is held by \u201cThat\u2019s What I Like,\u201d which had eight credited writers.) Moreover, if \u201cLuther\u201d wins, Kendrick Lamar will become just the second songwriter (following Dernst\u00a0\u201cD\u2019Mile\u201d\u00a0Emile II) to win in this category in back-to-back years. D\u2019Mile won with \u201cI Can\u2019t Breathe\u201d in 2021 and \u201cLeave the Door Open\u201d in 2022.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cGolden\u201d is vying to become the first K-pop smash to win in this category and the second film song to win in this category in the past three years. \u201cWhat Was I Made For?\u201d from Barbie won two years ago. \u201cWhat Was I Made For?\u201d also won an Oscar for best original song, a feat \u201cGolden\u201d might well duplicate. \u201cLuther\u201d is a gorgeous track, but the insanely catchy \u201cGolden\u201d is easier to hum when the voter is filling out his ballot.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tPredicted winner: \u201cGolden\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Presumed front-runners: \u201cAPT.\u201d (Amy Allen, Christopher Brody Brown, Rog\u00e9t Chahayed, Omer Fedi, Philip Lawrence, Bruno Mars, Chae Young&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":222184,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[1096,146,52559,14445,85,46,409],"class_list":{"0":"post-222183","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-awards","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-grammy-awards","11":"tag-grammys","12":"tag-il","13":"tag-israel","14":"tag-music"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222183"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222183\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/222184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
