Latin music income in the US continues to hit all-time highs, exceeding the $1 billion mark for a second consecutive yr on the energy of 16% development that outpaced the general market, in accordance with the RIAA.
That success drives Billboard’s resolution this yr to give attention to executives who’re U.S.-based or whose principal purview is the US. Our listing of 40 displays girls in senior-most positions with demonstrable decision-making energy whose corporations or artists have had vital chart presence and/or affect on the Billboard charts. To focus on as numerous a pool of executives as potential, we’re recognizing one per firm.
Along with our listing of 40 executives, we’re honoring 10 executives to look at, particularly acknowledging rising skills who present nice promise, in addition to younger executives overseeing the careers of artists who’re coming into the Billboard charts for the primary time and extra veteran ones who head smaller corporations.
As Latin music’s energy grows globally, we’re proud to acknowledge the increasing legion of ladies who’re driving the enterprise. As well as, eight artists will probably be honored throughout Billboard’s Mujeres Latinas en la Música (Latin Ladies in Music) telecast, produced by Telemundo and airing June 9 on the Telemundo community: Latin Girl of the 12 months Karol G, Ana Bárbara, Ángela Aguilar, Camila Cabello, Gloria Estefan, Kany García, Kali Uchis and La India.
