Billboard on Monday announced that it will honour, Popular singer, SZA, alongside other acts like Kacey Musgraves and Hayley Kiyoko.
The award will take place at the 13th annual Women in Music event in New York City on December 6, in conjunction with the release of its “Women in Music” issue.
Here’s what the publication said of SZA’s impact on the culture:
“SZA will be given the rule breaker award, which recognizes female artists who use their music and platform to defy traditional industry expectations and advance a powerful message for young people. As a dynamic new voice with an uncompromising songwriting vision, SZA has consistently upended the expectations of a modern R&B star while scoring Grammy nominations, multi-platinum hits from her Ctrl album and a prime slot on Top Dawg Entertainment’s best-selling Championship Tour.”
Other female artist who will be honoured at the event includes, Ariana Grande, who is named as Billboard’s Woman of the year, Janelle Monae, who will be honoured with the Trailblazer award and Cyndi Lauper, who will receive the Icon award at the event.
