Megan Thee Stallion accepts the Artist of the Year award from Billboard Editorial Director Hannah Karp at Billboard's 2024 R&B Hip-Hop Power Players.
Hannah Karp:
There's only one woman to top the Hot 100 with a rap song this year, and I'm thrilled to have her with us tonight. Not only did she kick off 2024 with the incredible No. 1 “HISS,” but she debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 in June as an independent artist, no less. The biggest debut for any rap album released by a female in 2024. She also topped Billboard's Top R&B Hip-Hop Albums for the second time in her career, becoming the sixth female rapper ever to do so. And most of all, as a philanthropist, activist, college graduate, entrepreneur, and fitness coach, it keeps us all in great shape, she's an incredible role model, not only for everyone in this business, but for our kids and fans. of music around the world. Please leave it to Artist of the Year, Megan Thee Stallion.
Megan Thee Stallion:
Back there my mouth is running. Well; First of all I want to thank God, yes, period. And then I want to thank my angels, my mom, my dad, my grandma, because I know they are watching over me and nothing would be possible without them.
