The awards ceremony will take place in Stockholm on May 27.
SZA won R&B artist of the year for the third year in a row, which sets a new record for most wins in the category.
The exclusive performance came from night 1 of The Eras Tour in Glendale, Arizona, exactly two years ago today.
"Even though the world might consider a woman in her late 30s old for a pop star -- which is insane -- I promise that I'm just getting warmed up," she told the crowd.
She will become just the second recipient of the award -- and the first artist and first woman to receive it.
