A&R would probably like to know the length of eligibility considering the 53rd Grammy award eligibility was 13 months.

Something needs to change.
There definitely hasn't been that many album releases so far that could be considered AOTY nomination material. Off the top of my head, I can only think of:
Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto
Black Keys - El Camino
Flo + The Machine - Ceremonials
Jack White - Blunderbuss (They love to throw in an indie album. Also, White Stripes have been nominated before)
ADELE - Set Fire To The Rain vs Kelly Clarkson - Stronger for BEST POP VOCAL PERFORMANCE
no one gonna come close other than Christina if she gonna release something

All of her zero hits and complete lack of credibility make her a solid contender no doubt.
