2024 ASCAP Pop Music Awards

May 8, 2024

On May 8, the ASCAP family gathered in celebration of our 2024 ASCAP Pop Music Awards winners – the songwriters, producers and publishers of the biggest hits of the past year. The 41st Annual ASCAP Pop Music Awards party took place at The Houdini Estate, a magical locale full of Hollywood history. It was the perfect place for a get-together of chart-topping music creators at the pinnacle of their craft.

SONGWRITERS OF THE YEAR: Olivia Rodrigo & Daniel Nigro

WINNING SONGS: "vampire" | "bad idea, right?"

Olivia Rodrigo & Daniel Nigro are a true pop dream team. After taking the world by storm with SOUR, the two followed up with a bona fide modern masterpiece in 2023: GUTS. Their bold, grunge inspired sophomore record brought critical acclaim, mainstream obsession, a sold out world tour and hits topping the charts.

GLOBAL IMPACT AWARD: Charli XCX

Charli XCX receives The ASCAP Global Impact Award for the enduring worldwide popularity of her music.
Charli is an innovative pop icon, winning critical acclaim for her forward-thinking musical style and entrepreneurial spirit. Her upcoming sixth studio album BRAT is the eagerly-awaited follow up to 2022’s CRASH, which reached #1 on the UK’s official album chart. Following the breakout success of her Barbie soundtrack contribution “Speed Drive” last year, she is co-executive producing the score for the A24 film Mother Mary with Jack Antonoff and producing original music for Benito Skinner’s series Overcompensating. In addition to her chart-topping success as an artist, Charli has established a prolific songwriting career, co-writing megahits including Icona Pop’s “I Love It,” Iggy Azalea’s “Fancy,” Camila Cabello & Shawn Mendes’s “Señorita” and Selena Gomez’s “Same Old Love.”
