Honorees include Kylie Minogue, Charli XCX, Tems, Luisa Sonza, Young Miko, Maren Morris, Ice Spice, Victoria Monet and K-pop group NewJeans.

"We could not be more excited to celebrate these inspiring and dynamic artists from around the world, as they move our culture forward and inspire women everywhere to push boundaries and pursue their own dreams," Billboard editorial director Hannah Karp said.
