Billboard  has announced the nominees for their annual music awards and it's loaded up with the biggest artists and bands in popular music.  The iconic media brand is best known for its music charts, tracking the most popular singles and albums in different genres. It also hosts events, owns a publishing firm, and oversees TV shows.
