Only 14 women were among the 153 honored in this year's Billboard Power 100. On this International Women's Day, music industry network SheSaid.So has released their second Alternative Power 100 Music List to honor work of the many more women music industry movers and shakers.



Andreea Magdalina

"The Alternative Power 100 Music List is a symbolic gesture," says Andreea Magdalina, the founder of SheSaid.so about the member voted honor. "It is by no means an accurate reflection of professional achievements, nor is it a hierarchical index supported by scholastic research and/or a substantial amount of nominations. It is, nevertheless, our attempt at highlighting the work of our members and their extended networks which often gets overlooked due to market saturation. It is our opportunity to showcase non-traditional companies, career paths and levels of success that reject unilateral thinking."

"It is our privilege to express what diversity and representation mean to us, inclusive of mainstream selections and unconventional subcultures alike.che continues. "It is also a chance to reflect and learn about our own shortcomings in an effort to devise solutions that further our objectives beyond gender."
