The honours recognise Walker’s international R&B success and Rexha’s songwriting and chart career, as both artists mark new stages in their creative work.

Walker’s completed Over It trilogy became the basis for her first arena tour, which sold out venues worldwide, including two nights at London’s O2. Rexha went independent and partnered with EMPIRE in 2026; her album Dirty Blonde reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Dance Albums chart. Chxrry will receive the Rising Star Award, while The Beaches’ Leandra Earl and Kylie Miller will host the event.
