Jack Harlow, along with Lil Nas X, occupies the position of 'Most Nominated of the Year” with 7 nominations. Remembering that some of them, such as: “Video of the Year” and “Best Collaboration” happened thanks to the collaboration between the two on “Industry Baby”. It is worth remembering that Harlow and Nas X will face each other in the “Artist of the Year” category, along with Bad Bunny, Drake, Lizzo, Ed Sheeran and Harry Styles.

BLACKPINK, J Balvin, Jack Harlow, Lizzo, Maneskin and Panic! At the Disco are some of the performances confirmed for the night; with emphasis on Anitta, who in addition to performing, will also compete for the “Best Latino” award, with the hit “Envolver”.

Among the three names chosen as presenters, Nicki Minaj certainly attracts attention. The American rapper had already been announced as one of the night's performances and also as the winner of the Video Vanguard Award. She doesn't stop!

But not everything is rosy. Although her career is going strong, Nicki suspects that Billboard (an American magazine specializing in information about the music industry) is changing the rules for counting single sales to prevent her and her “Barbz” achieved another first place, with the single “Super Freaky Girl”, in the renowned ranking, Billboard 100.

“Every time we release a song, we can do what we do with 'Say So' or 'Trollz,' so they take the power out of someone's hands. They don’t like it”said Nicki.

The same thing happened with two other of his works: “Say So”, in which he participated as a feat. with Doja Cat, and in “Trollz”, a partnership with rapper 6ix9ine.
Since the beginning of the year, the changes made by Billboard mean that only 1 sale (single or album) per customer is counted; Making purchasing efforts practically useless in the charts.
