Here are the rights groups, media, associations, activism and philanthropy executives on Billboard’s 2023 BBWomenInMusic list.
Last year was one of accelerated growth for the United Kingdom’s biggest collecting society, which collects royalties on behalf of 160,000-plus rights holders from live and public performance, as well as broadcast and streaming. In October, PRS for Music paid out 211 million pounds to members, the organization’s largest single distribution in its 108-year history, with annual revenue well on track to surpass 2021’s 777 million pounds total.
Two of its members appear on the 2023 Women in Music list: Executive vp/general counsel Danielle Aguirre belongs to our Women in Music Hall of Fame due to her Co-Executive of the Year honor in 2018, when her advocacy helped pass the Music Modernization Act.
Binder adds: “While our settlement with digital services ensures songwriters receive the highest streaming rates in history, we are still fighting for songwriters to be paid back royalties owed by the digital companies that appealed the rate increase we won in 2018. This ongoing process has created uncertainty for over half a decade and illustrates how broken the process has become. This is why CRB reform will be a major focus for us in the new Congress.
