As previously reported, the awards will air on Sunday, February 25, 2024, on TV One and CLEO TV, and celebrate the remarkable accomplishments and contributions of figures in the arts, music, media, education, and our community.

During the ceremony Chlöe was celebrated as the Generation Next Honoree, the iconic Dionne Warwick was recognized as the Lifetime Achievement Honoree, Mary J. Blige was touted as the Entertainment Icon Honoree, Frankie Beverly was the Living Legend Honoree, and gospel powerhouse Donald Lawrence was praised as the Inspirational Impact Honoree.

And while we love spotlighting the honorees, we’d be remiss if we didn’t also spotlight the red-hot fashion that the stars wore.
