PinkPantheress Is Billboard’s 2024 Women in Music Producer of the Year
Written by djfrosty on February 15, 2024
In 2023, Billboard honored Rosalía as its first-ever Producer of the Year — and now, the baton has been passed to PinkPantheress.
As announced Thursday (Feb. 15), the 22-year-old Bath, England native will accept the 2024 Producer of the Year Award presented by Bose at the Billboard Women in Music Awards presented by Marriott Bonvoy on Wednesday, March 6. The ceremony will be hosted by Tracee Ellis Ross at the YouTube Theater at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles.
“We are thrilled to honor PinkPantheress as one of the most exciting young producers on the rise,” says Hannah Karp, Billboard’s Editorial Director. “Women are still seriously underrepresented among the producers making today’s top hits, so we’re grateful to our partners at Bose for helping spotlight talented artists like PinkPantheress who are producing and inspiring a new generation of women to get behind the boards, in addition to wowing fans their fans as performers on stage.”
Known for her ability to turn niche samples into viral dance-pop beats, PinkPantheress has been producing her own music since she first found fame on TikTok in 2021. In March 2023, she reached her highest peak to date on the Billboard Hot 100 with the No. 3 hit “Boy’s a Liar, Pt. 2” featuring Ice Spice. She executive produced her 2023 album Heaven Knows; to date, her full song catalog has registered 1.62 billion official on-demand U.S. streams, according to Luminate.
