A renowned award given by the international magazine to recognize the work of women in the music industry, which will be presented at the gala at the Billboard Women in Music Awards on March 6, at the YouTube Theater in Hollywood Park, Los Angeles.

Karol G's image is that of an empowered woman and that is the message she wants to convey. Her lyrics make it very clear, and that, thanks to representing that same thing in her songs, she has stood out as a powerful voice in this movement, inspiring women of all ages to embrace her strength and continue. her dreams.

Karol G's style has been awarded for reflecting the change in reggaeton that is moving away from being a style focused solely on male artists. “You know, I feel a lot of responsibility about it. As a woman, I have to say that, in my experience, it was difficult, like so many things, to be a girl in this industry, in the music I make, in urban music,” the singer told the press after collecting her Grammy.

The artist of hits like Provenza will collect the award at the Billboard gala, a gala that will be held at Theater de Hollywood Park in Los Angeles, and will be presented by American actress and producer Tracee Ellis Ross. It will be at that same awards ceremony where Karol G will perform live alongside other great artists such as Charli XCX, Luísa Sonza, Maren Morris, Victoria Monét or Young Miko.
