About the
Awards Show:
Latin Music's
longest running and
most prestigious awards
show will take place
May 8th at its new
larger home - the Miami
Arena. The awards show
caps Billboard's Latin
Music Conference,
presented by Heineken,
and in association with
Garnier Fructis, which
runs from May 5th
through May 8th. Last
year the broadcast was
the highest rated
special in Telemundo's
history.
The Billboard Latin
Music Awards is the
only ceremony whose
winners are based on
radio and retail chart
performances. Finalists
for the Billboard
Awards are chosen
solely based on their
performances on Hot
Latin Tracks and Top
Latin Albums.
The Billboard Latin
Music Awards honor the
most popular albums,
songs, and performers
in Latin music, as
determined by the
actual sales and radio
airplay data that
informs Billboard's
weekly charts during a
one-year period from
the issue dated
February 16, 2002
through this year's
February 8 issue.
Finalists, and the
eventual winners,
reflect performance of
new recordings on
Billboard's sales
charts, including Top
Latin Albums, and radio
charts, including Hot
Latin Tracks, with
album categories
confined to titles that
did not chart before
Billboard's Nov. 17,
2001 issue but
excluding finalists
from the prior-year's
Billboard Latin Music
Awards. Based on sales
data compiled by
Nielsen SoundScan and
radio information
monitored by Nielsen
Broadcast Data Systems,
Billboard's charts are
the world's most
authoritative music
charts.
