I nominati ai Billboard Music Awards 2017 sono ufficiali. Le premiazioni si svolgeranno il 21 maggio prossimo, ma sono già noti i nomi degli artisti che potranno aggiudicarsi una delle statuette messe in palio per ciascuna delle categorie in concorso. Le nomination si basano sulle vendite degli album fisici e negli store digitali, oltre che sullo streaming, la presenza in radio, i tour e gli impegni nel sociale.
Tra i più gettonati di questa prossima edizione della kermesse vi è sicuramente Drake. L’artista svetta su tutti i suoi colleghi con 22 nomination, davanti ai Chainsmokers e ai Twenty One Pilots. Tra i nomi importanti non potevano mancare quelli di Beyoncé, Adele, Rihanna, Ariana Grande e Justin Bieber, tutti in lizza per la statuetta come Miglior artista.
Senza considerare l’exploit di Drake, che concorre per 22 premi, è senza dubbio Adele l’artista da tenere d’occhio. Quando ancora aleggia nell’aria la possibilità che l’artista britannica si ritiri dalle scene, arriva una nuova nomination come artista dell’anno. Sarebbe questo il suo secondo BMA consecutivo, a distanza di oltre due anni dal rilascio di 25, suo ultimo disco di inediti che contiene l’apripista Hello.
Rimane tra i grandi Beyoncé, artista di raro talento e habitué dei grandi palchi internazionali, che quest’anno concorre con 8 nomination, tra le quali quella per Top Artist. Fa meglio di lei Rihanna, che viene riconosciuta in 14 categorie, andando spesso a scontrarsi con Queen Bey, che raramente torna a casa digiuna di premi. Riri rimane comunque tra le artiste più premiate ai BMA, con ben 23 statuette già portate a casa. Segue l’elenco completo, con la suddivisione per categoria, di tutti gli artisti nominati ai Billboard Music Awards, la cui cerimonia di premiazione è fissata per il 21 maggio prossimo.
