Beginning Wednesday (Nov. 8), SiriusXM’s Billboard Music Awards Channel spotlights the year’s biggest Billboard chart hits, serving as an all-inclusive soundtrack leading up to the 2023 Billboard Music Awards.
The Billboard Music Awards Channel will air on the SiriusXM App (channel 501) through Nov. 20, with a Billboard Music Awards Weekend feature set to run on satellite channel 11 Nov. 17-20.
The channel will highlight 2023 Billboard Music Awards finalists, No. 1 hits from the 2023 Billboard chart year and flashbacks to winners over the past decade, all spanning multiple genres, including pop, rock/alternative, R&B/hip-hop, country, Latin, dance/electronic and Christian.
The 2023 Billboard Music Awards will roll out across BBMAs and Billboard social channels, as well as via BBMAs.watch, Nov. 19, beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
Taylor Swift is the top 2023 BBMAs finalist, with nods in 20 categories, as determined by year-end performance on Billboard’s charts (dated Nov. 19, 2022, through Oct. 21, 2023). Morgan Wallen and SZA are runners-up with 17 entries each. They are followed by The Weeknd (16); Zach Bryan and Drake (14); Luke Combs (10); 21 Savage, Miley Cyrus and Metro Boomin (nine each); Beyoncé and Rema (seven each); Bad Bunny and Peso Pluma (six each); and Eslabon Armado, Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande, David Guetta, Karol G and NewJeans (five each).
The Billboard Music Awards Channel marks the latest partnership between SiriusXM and Billboard. Previously, the Billboard #2 Countdown Channel celebrated revered runners-up over the Billboard Hot 100’s history; the Billboard Top 500 R&B Countdown highlighted hits for Black Music Month; the Billboard Women of Pop 1000 Countdown honored Women’s History Month; the Cupid Countdown made Valentine’s Day even sweeter; the Billboard Top 112 Songs of Christmas Countdown dashed through the sounds of the season; and the Billboard Top 500 Summer Hits recapped the biggest summer songs ever on the Hot 100.
Additionally, SiriusXM’s Big 40 Countdown, on ’80s on 8, and the Back in the Day Replay, on ‘90s on 9, are based on historical weekly Hot 100 charts, with other current and classic charts counted down on channels including 70s on 7, Prime Country and TikTok Radio.
