‘Women In Music 2016: The 100 Most Powerful Executives’ is Billboard’s take on the state of equality in the biz.

It’s an interesting selection, stacked with corporate lawyers, branding wizards and rising comets like the 26 year-old who does music partnerships for Snapchat (if you don’t know her, you are so 2015).

The only classical face in the pack is Rebecca Allen, head of Decca Records and a marathon runner who puts those deskbound males to shame.

    Unfortunately, Decca is a shadow of its former self. The blind are leading the blind.
