As Artist of the Year 2024, Billie Eilish will receive a very special award, in true Apple style. Artists usually receive gold, silver or platinum records. However, Apple has decided to do something different. By preserving the essence of an album, what they deliver is a processor chip. A unique and irreplaceable reward for this Artist of the Year 2024.
Each Apple Music Award includes a plaque Apple Silicon suspended on a polished glass plate and a machined and anodized aluminum body. It's a symbolic way of connecting the same chip that allows listeners to hear their songs with the effort and creativity of the artist who made it possible.
