Rap-Up.com || Jazmine Sullivan, Fergie Honored at Billboard’s Women in Music Awards

Jazmine Sullivan suited up for Billboard’s 5th Annual Women in Music Awards. The R&B powerhouse, whose sophomore album Love Me Back was released this week, received the Rising Star Award following last year’s honoree Lady Gaga.

“I admire Lady Gaga, so to be honored in a category that she was once in is such a rewarding feeling,” the Grammy-nominated singer told Billboard.com. “When I heard the news, I was so happy. I feel honored to be chosen as this year’s Rising Star.”

Fergie was also on hand as she was presented with Billboard’s Woman of the Year Award at the event held at New York’s Pierre Hotel on Thursday (Dec. 2).

I think it’s a shame that Jazmine’s album has received little to no promotion. I guess touring with Mary J. Blige the past few months doesn’t hurt but I bet the majority doesn’t even know that it was released this week. Maybe it’s just me but anyway; just like her debut album ‘Love Me Back’ is seriously one of the best R&B albums to come out this year. Jazmine deserves so much credit and success for everything she has done so far. Not only is she an amazing vocalist, but her voice is like no other.
