PREDICTION There's no ''Dilemma'' herre: ''Hot'' rapper Nelly will win
Nelly: Jack Chuck/Corbis Outline

Best

Rap/Sung Collaboration

SURVEY SAYS It's Nelly in herre. ''That's a monster record.'' Twin nominations ''will split the Ashanti vote,'' and ''the Nappy Roots record isn't as well-known.'' His newfound street cred aside, Timberlake is unlikely to pull out a victory here. ''Him winning a rap award would be the first sign of the Apocalypse. If he wins, he should keep his Grammy next to Jethro Tull's [1988] best metal performance award.''
