Taylor Swift wins the IFPI’s Global Recording Artist of the Year Award for a record third time

Taylor Swift has achieved yet another career milestone. In winning the 2022 Global Recording Artist of the Year Award of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), Taylor became the only artist to win the award for the third time.

IFPI, an organization that represents the recorded music industry worldwide, previously awarded her in 2014 and 2019.

“It is a great pleasure to award the IFPI Global Recording Artist Award to Taylor Swift for an unprecedented third time in the chart’s ten-year history," said Frances Moore, IFPI Chief Executive.

"Taylor is a truly magnificent international star, who continues to grow and evolve as an artist whilst maintaining an incredibly strong connection with her fans around the world," Frances added.

The new record comes at the heels of Taylor being named by Forbes magazine as the highest-paid female entertainer in the world and the only woman in the Top 10 ranking.

Taylor recently won the Grammy for Best Music Video for “All Too Well: The Short Film.”

In November 2022, she dominated the American Music Awards, winning the top prize, Artist of the Year.

The IFPI awarded the Global Recording Artist of the Year Award to BTS in 2021 and 2020. — LA, GMA Integrated News
