BMI Pop Awards 2012 [Palmarès]

Les 60èmes BMI Pop Award se sont déroulés hier soir (le 15 Mai) à Beverly Hills avec pour objectif de récompenser les meilleures compositions du genre, pour la période 2010-2011 au vu des résultats.
(BMI = Broadcast Music, Inc. = un des grands acteurs de la gestion des droits d'auteur aux States).

La grande gagnante de la soirée est Ester Dean (ci-dessus), nommée "Songwriter de l'année" pour sa contribution à 5 des morceaux qui ont été récompensés : What’s My Name?, Rude Boy, S&M, Super Bass et Firework. Ce dernier est même la "Pop Song de l'année".
Autant de prix n'étonneront personnes quand on sait à quel point elle est une songwriter incontournable dans le domaine de la Pop, participant à une multitude de chansons de Katy Perry à Nicki Minaj en passant par Usher, Chris Brown, Kelly Rowland, Nicole Scherzinger, Sean Kingston, Ludacris... mais surtout Rihanna.

Mais elle n'est pas le seule à avoir été honorée du titre de "Songwriter de l'année" : c'est aussi le cas de Benny Blanco et Pitbull.

Par ailleurs, RedOne a vu deux de ses productions primées : le tube On The Floor et l'excellent I Like It.
