Getting ready for Billboard’s Women in Music Awards
With the live show this year, opportunities will be greater than before! All the award recipients will take the stage to receive their awards and perform.

Karol G, a reggaeton artist who has risen in the Latin scene by transcending into the pop music scene in the American pop space will be receiving the Rulebreaker Award. Saweetie, who has received attention as of recent for songs like “Best Friend” and “Tap In”, will receive the Game Changer Award. Singer American Walker will receive the Chartbreaker Award. The R&B star has broken the record for the biggest debut on the US R&B albums charts since Lemonade by Beyonce. Sloppy Jane singer Phoebe Bridges will receive the Trailblazer Award. Gabby Barrett, who previously competed on American Idol, will receive the Rising Star Award and Bonnie Rait will receive the Icon Award.
