The 26-year-old singer Becky G will receive the key to the city of Coachella on Saturday.

City officials, including Mayor Steven Hernandez, will host a free ceremony open to the public at 1 p.m. Saturday to present multi-platinum, award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, and activist with a key.

“So many young women in our community can relate to the notion of overcoming adversity at a young age,” said Hernandez in a statement. “A granddaughter to immigrants from Jalisco, Mexico and daughter to parents who struggled financially to support the family, Becky G began working part-time jobs at a young age and propelled forward despite all odds to make her dream in the music industry a reality. She is proof that hard, honest work prevails.”
