Again this year, Apple announced the Apple Music Awards under the theme of “The Best Artists of 2021 and Their Influence on Global Culture.” 2021 will be the third time.
Olivia Rodrigo is the Triple Crown
The Apple Music Awards select artists based on both the perspective of the Apple Music editor and the number of views of the user. The Weeknd was selected as the Global Artist of the Year this year, and Olivia Rodrigo was selected as the Breakthrough Artist of the Year.
The Weeknd was born in 1990 and Olivia Rodrigo was born in 2003, which is characterized by the selection of relatively young artists. In particular, Olivia Rodrigo has won the album of the year for her debut album “SOUR” and the single of the year for the song “drivers license”. The songwriter of the year was awarded by HER for the album “Back of My Mind”.

By the way, one of the seniors who won three awards at the same time at the Apple Music Awards is Billie Eilish, who has become one of the world’s top artists (1st). For that reason, I am looking forward to the future activities of Olivia Rodrigo.
From this year’s Apple Music Awards, we’ve added the Regional Artists of the Year category, which recognizes five countries / regions and artists. The targets are Africa, France, Germany, Japan and Russia, and the official Hige Dandism was selected from Japan.
The award-winning event by Apple will be streamed simultaneously on December 7, 2021.
