Grammys 2026:  BTS has achieved global success but has never won a Grammy despite five nominations. For the 2026 Grammy Awards, members Jin, Jhope, and RM have submitted their solo music, giving fans hope for a win. After completing military service in 2024, the three members focused on solo projects. Each has released music that reflects their individual style and creativity. With Jin, Jhope, and RM submitting solo work, ARMYs are hopeful. 

Jin released his album Echo, submitted for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album. His single Don’t Say You Love Me is up for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance. The album debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and topped iTunes charts in over 80 countries. Critics praised its strong vocals and emotional songs. Competition is tough, but Jin has a chance, especially in the Pop Vocal category.

Jhope submitted Mona Lisa and Killin’ It Girl. Mona Lisa is up for Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Global Music Performance. Killin’ It Girl is competing for Best Rap Performance and Best Music Video. Mona Lisa reached No. 65 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped iTunes in 70+ countries. Critics praised the song’s originality and Jhope’s creativity, though his US chart impact is smaller than Jin’s.

RM submitted Neva Play, featuring Megan Thee Stallion, for Best Rap/Sung Performance and Best Global Music Performance. The song debuted at No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached No. 13 on the Global Excl. US chart. It also entered the Spotify Global Top 10. Critics called it a successful mix of Kpop and US rap. RM may have the strongest chance of the three because of its US exposure.
