Previous recipients include Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys, Chance the Rapper, Bruno Mars, U2, and others.
The iHeartRadio Music Awards, which will be held on April 1 at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre, will come just a few days after Beyoncé announced her upcoming album — and the second part of her 2022 album Renaissance — Cowboy Carter on March 29. The project includes the previously released “16 Carriages” and the historic Hot Country Songs chart-topper “Texas Hold ‘Em.”
