Predictions | 12.20.21.

This week, as 2021 winds to a close we take a look at predictions for the coming year, and what we can expect in 2022. 2021 has been another wild year as people around the world have continued to press on in the face of the coronavirus pandemic, political upheaval, and a range of controversies. In recent days, these include Joe Manchin of West Virginia putting the death nail in Joe Biden's Build Back Better bill, fireworks between Charlemagne tha God and Vice President Harris, and shortages of everything from candy canes to firewood this Christmas. However, as the year winds to a close, in this special final 2021 edition of Middle Theory, we look ahead at what some in the entertainment industry are predicting for the coming year, along with several positive predictions for where we are headed in 2022.
