How Are the Winners Chosen?
Many top awards shows often choose nominees based on the highest votes received by an Academy. For instance, the Grammy Award nominees are determined by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences’ votes.
However, the Billboard Music Awards works a little differently, as the nominees are shaped by an act’s album and digital song sales, radio airplay, streaming, social engagement, and touring.
Billboard and its data partners track the data throughout the year to select the right finalists for a category.
