Megan Thee Stallion

Megan Thee Stallion, one of three 2021 SI Swimsuit cover models, is a three-time Grammy Award winner, philanthropist and ever-evolving cultural icon. From releasing her critically acclaimed and gold-certified debut album, Good News, to earning three global-record-breaking Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hits with the “Savage Remix” featuring Beyoncé and “WAP” with Cardi B, Megan has proved to be unstoppable. Named the 2021 Grammy Best New Artist, she has also won nine BET Award, including back-to-back honors as Best Female Hip Hop Artist.

Megan, a native of Houston, was also honored as one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2020. In October 2020, following a powerful and politically charged performance on Saturday Night Live that demanded justice for Breonna Taylor, Megan published her monumental “Why I Speak Up For Black Women” op-ed and accompanying visual with The New York Times.

Anitta

Anitta is a leading force in a new generation of Latin American musical artists. Having released albums in 2013, ’14 and ’16 in her home country of Brazil, she expanded her worldwide footprint, performing in the opening ceremony of the 2016 Summer Games. Beginning in 2014, Anitta won Best Brazilian Act five years in a row at the MTV Europe Music Awards. Her most recent release, Kisses, in 2019, marked her first trilingual album, with songs in Spanish, Portuguese and English; the work was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award. She has amassed 59.5 million Instagram followers and over 15 million YouTube subscribers and charted for the first time on U.S. Top 40 radio in 2021 with her single “Girl from Rio.”

Tinashe

Tinashe is not only a multi-platinum-certified R&B disruptor singer, writer and dancer, but she also produces, mixes, engineers, creative directs and edits. As a result, she blazes past any and all boundaries, taking full control of her independence as she revs up to release her latest project “333”, a multi-track compilation featuring her latest singles “Pasadena” ft. the likes of Buddy, and “Bouncin.”
