The BBMAs celebrate music’s greatest achievements, with finalists determined by performance on the Billboard charts. Finalists and winners are based on key fan interactions with music — album and digital song sales, streaming, radio airplay and social engagement — tracked by Billboard and its data partners, including MRC Data. This year’s awards are based on the chart period of March 21, 2020, through April 3, 2021.
Voting in fan-voted categories, including top social artist and top collaboration, opened on May 10 at 9 a.m. PT and closes May 21 at 11:59 pm PT on Twitter and billboard.com/bbmasvote. Visit billboardmusicawards.com/vote for more details.
