Jack Harlow has continued his impressive run of consecutive wins at the SESAC Music Awards, bagging Songwriter of the Year for the third time in three years.
The performing rights organization held its annual ceremony on Tuesday night (September 19) at The Highlight Room in Los Angeles, with the aim to recognize its songwriting and publishing members.
The Kentucky rapper took home the top honor — which he also won in 2021 and 2022 — as well as Song of the Year for his chart-topping hit “First Class.”
Harlow’s wins didn’t stop there, as he earned two SESAC Performance Awards for “Nail Tech” and his Drake collaboration, “Churchill Downs.”

“We are honored to celebrate our songwriters and publishers across multiple genres,” Sam Kling, CCO of SESAC Performing Rights, said in a statement. “SESAC is proud of its affiliates who continue to write chart-topping hits and we enjoy every opportunity we get to celebrate their achievements.”
Bryan Michael Cox earned a performance award for his work on Ari Lennox’s “Pressure,” while other performance awards went to Daniel Lopatin (The Weeknd), Dez Wright (Gunna, Young Thug, Drake), Jimmy Napes (Sam Smith, Kim Petras), Dacoury Dahi Natche (Steve Lacy), Malibu Babie (Megan Thee Stallion), DJ Dahi (Kendrick Lamar), Patrick “j.Que” Smith (Joji) and more.
