The award, which will be presented to the honorees on Feb. 2, three days before the, recognized personal and professional achievements in the music industry. Sylvia Rhone, a music executive who oversees a roster of artists as CEO and Chairwoman of Epic Records, will also receive the honor.

“I am so thrilled to honor and celebrate these four giants in the music industry,” Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason jr. shared in a statement. “Last year’s inaugural event was such a highlight during GRAMMY Week, and now with Dre, Missy, Wayne, and Sylvia there to pay tribute to this year, it’s definitely going to be another night to remember. I continue to be proud of the work of our Black Music Collective as it’s a vital part of what we do here at the Academy.

The Black Music Collective event will feature music direction from Adam Blackstone, who is nominated this year for Best Traditional R&B Performance for the Jazmine Sullivan-assisted “Round Midnight.” He was also awarded a Primetime Emmy for his role as musical director on the Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show, which featured performances from Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and 50 Cent.

Blackstone helmed the inaugural Black Music Collective event in 2022, during which John Legend received the first-ever Global Impact Award. “This event is a reflection of our continued work as we strive to celebrate the greatest and brightest in Black music who transcend beyond race and genre,” Riggs Morales, Chair of the Black Music Collective, shared in a statement last year.
