TIME has unveiled its 2025 list of the world’s biggest rising stars, and among them were several major pop, Latin, country and hip-hop musicians.

On Tuesday (Sept. 30), the publication revealed that Tate McRae, Gracie Abrams, GloRilla and more have all been named on this year’s “TIME100 Next” ranking. Becky G, Rema, Fuerza Regida, Teyana Taylor and Lainey Wilson also made the list, which serves “to provide a snapshot of the moment and to recognize those who we feel are truly changing the world this year,” according to TIME.

The honorees each received blurbs that close friends or collaborators wrote for them. Billboard‘s September Chartbreaker Audrey Hobert penned the entry for her lifelong bestie and co-songwriter Abrams — “She is protective, and beautifully sensitive,” Hobert praised the pop star — while Selena Gomez shared why she loves Becky G.

“Becky G has never let the world define her,” the Rare Beauty founder wrote of the Latin music star. “She has always defined herself with her powerful presence. Through the years, I have watched her excel not only as an artist but also as a woman, an advocate, and a voice for our community.”

McRae, who graces the cover of one of the three “TIME100 Next” issues published this week, got praise from Materialists star Dakota Johnson. “Tate is magnetic,” the actress wrote for the publication. “I can’t wait to watch her artistry unfold and evolve while she sinks further into the DNA of pop music.”

One of the other cover stars, Jonathan Bailey, was honored by his Wicked costar Ariana Grande. “I’m so thankful that I get to spend so much time with this incredibly gifted, playful, and caring human being who is so endlessly curious about art and life and the many which ways they intertwine,” the pop star gushed. “I’ll forever be along for the ride.”

In addition to musicians, the “TIME100 Next” ranking also features actors, producers, political figures, activists, entrepreneurs and innovators. Last year, Sabrina Carpenter was featured on the ranking, while SZA and Dua Lipa have been in honored in years past.

Of the annual project, TIME‘s editor-in-chief, Sam Jacobs, wrote, “While we’ve made it our mission to cover people who have reached the pinnacle of their fields, the ‘TIME100 Next’ is an opportunity to recognize those still on the rise.

“We’ve known that true influence knows no age and that it can arrive early in a career,” Jacobs added. “This year’s class is no exception to that tradition.”
