SZA adds another accolade to her portfolio
SZA will be the winner to take home the Hal David Starlight Award at the 2024 Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction & Awards event, according to reports. The ceremony will be held on June 13 at New York City’s Marriott Marquis Hotel.
The “Kill Bill” hit-maker will be the second Black woman to be honored with the award after Alicia Keys‘ 2005 win.
“This is such an exciting time for songwriters and music,” SHOF chairman Nile Rodgers said in a statement. “Phenomenal artists like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift are pushing the envelope of what success looks like, but who could argue that the last two years belong to SZA. Incredible songwriting, incredible performances, incredible artistry. She so deserves to be the 2024 recipient of the Hal David Starlight Award!”
