Awards & Recognition: Apple Music named Olivia Dean its 2026 Artist of the Year, citing her rapid rise and sold-out global tour. MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN will return June 19, 2027, with a ceremony and international industry events in Tokyo. Global Music: African artists could claim several spots in the 2027 Grammy global music races, with Angélique Kidjo, Tems, Davido and Asake among the contenders. Industry & Legacy: Paul McCartney joined the billionaire ranks with an estimated $1.4 billion fortune, driven partly by his publishing company and music rights.
