Saweetie Honored with Game Changer Award at 2022 Billboard Women In Music

Continuing on track to make 2022 her best year yet, GRAMMY-nominated star Saweetie took home the 2022 Billboard Women in Music Game Changer Award on Wednesday night. The multi-platinum artist took the stage for the debut live performance of her recently released smash hit “Closer” featuring R&B chart-topper H.E.R., before accepting the Game Changer award, which was presented to her by her mother, Trinidad Valentin.

The release of “Closer,” which marks the latest track from her forthcoming debut album Pretty Bitch Music, adds to an already unstoppable year for the multi-platinum star, who is currently nominated for two GRAMMY Awards for Best Rap Song for “Best Friend” and Best New Artist. The track debuted on Billboard’s Hot 100 list and, upon release, was the #1 most added song at Pop & Rhythmic Radio, racking up over 30 million global streams to date and continues to climb. “Closer” currently sits at #19 and #17 on Billboard‘s Pop Airplay chart and Rhythmic Airplay chart, respectively, with no signs of slowing down.
