Billboard announced Monday, November 19th that it will honor SZA at its 13th annual Women in Music event in New York City on December 6th, in conjunction with the release of its “Women in Music” issue.
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.
