Billboard Names SZA Its 2023 Woman Of The Year
Sza has been named Billboard’s 2023 Woman of the Year.
The publication announced the artist’s new title in an article Friday that celebrated her contribution to music over the years.
Hannah Karp, Billboard’s editorial director, said that SZA’s latest album, titled “SOS,” “solidified her as a distinct force in contemporary R&B, and catapulted her into superstardom.”
SZA’s first album has made waves on the Billboard charts.
“Ctrl” has remained on the Billboard 200 chart since its 2017 release and holds the record for the longest run for any Black female artist’s debut album, the publication reported.
Billboard will celebrate SZA’s Woman of the Year honor at its Billboard Women in Music Awards ceremony, hosted by Quinta Brunson, on March 1.
