Time magazine's annual "100 Most Influential People" issue has arrived.

For this year's prestigious roster, Time paid tribute to a diverse group, which included pioneers, artists, leaders, titans, and icons.

Megan Thee Stallion, The Weeknd, Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union, and Black Lives Matter founders —Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi — were among the small group of honorees to be featured in four of the eight worldwide covers for the special issue.

Like in previous years, each Time 100 honoree was highlighted by a fellow famous figure that spoke about how the honoree impacted the world.

For Megan Thee Stallion's piece, actress Taraji P. Henson praised the 25-year-old rapper for her strength and resilience.

"I don’t like to put the stigma of the word strong on Black women because I think it dehumanizes us, but she has strength—strength through vulnerability. She’s lost much of her family—her mother, her father, her grandmother—yet she is the epitome of tenacity, of pulling herself up by her bootstraps," Henson said. "She was shot this summer, and still people tried to tear her down. But she’s out here still loving and being sweet."

The 50-year-old actress added, "It’s invigorating to see her become a platinum-selling artist with the viral hit “Hot Girl Summer” and multiple No. 1 songs in the past year, 'Savage' and 'WAP.' But you would be a fool to think that’s all there is to her. She’s deep. She’s enrolled in college. She’s an entertainer. She’s a free spirit; I see that in her. The industry might try to pigeonhole her in this rap game, but she’s got a plan that’s much bigger. And we got her. I just want her to keep winning."
