Reports recently revealed that 2NE1 is one of four (4) New Artist Award winners for the 53rd Japan Record Awards. The Japan Record Awards for outstanding achievements in the Japan Composer's Association is a major music awards show held annually in Japan. The Japan Records Awards is a highly respected award show program with a 50+ year history.
Based on a review of the many dozens of debuts during the Eligibility Period, the New Artist Award goes to the four top debuting artists. The other winners are Ito Miyu, SUPER☆GiRLS, and Faeries. During the awards show, 2NE1 and the other three New Artist Award winners will compete for the "Rookie of the Year"*.
The Rookie of the Year is awarded to the performer amongst the four New Artist Award winners who releases, during the Eligibility Year, their first recording, which establishes the public identity of that artist. The first recording may not necessarily be their first proper release.Note: We are not exactly sure what % album sales, concert sales or other criteria are weighted.
To be clear, there are two awards. 2NE1 has already won the New Artist Award, we won't know until the actual day of the event which fourNew Artist Award winners will be awarded the Rookie of the Year.

More About the other BNA Nominees:
SUPER☆GiRLS is a 12-member Avex idol group, Though they started off sluggishly, they have been slowly gaining fans and their last single ranked #2 on Oricon Daily, eventually selling 48,00 copies its first week.
Ito Miyu is a female solo artist who struck nostalgic gold with her single “Roppongi Stardust.”It is very old school and sounds like the theme to a James Bond movie or a theme to a Golgo 13 anime perhaps. You could probably compare it to the Honey Flash theme from Cutey Honey. It’s very lounge act sounding and 70′s-ish in vibe with the horns and guitars."
Fairies is a 7-member Japanese idol girl group that quickly gained popularity for their surprising performance talents. With an average age of 13.1 years old, they are the youngest girl group ever to have a regular radio show. Though their sales have not been that high, they are popularity is definitely on the rise.
The event will be broadcasted live on TBS on December 30, starting at 6PM.
Congratulations to 2NE1 for their first major Japanese Award.
