As the reigning King of R&B, Usher unquestionably stands tall as one of the anchoring pillars of the culture.
Fittingly, then, the Diamond-selling superstar is set to be honored at Culture’s Biggest Night – the BET Awards 2024 – with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
Full story below…
Boasting a colossal career spanning over three decades, the performer will be saluted for his contributions to music and pop culture more broadly at the June 30 ceremony.
Usher will join an elite list of legends bestowed with the honor including Whitney Houston, Prince, Queen Latifah, Anita Baker, Mary J. Blige, Samuel Jackson, Lionel Richie, and New Edition.
Connie Orlando, BET EVP, Specials, Music Programming & Music Strategy said in a statement:
“The relationship between BET and USHER spans decades, from his multiple appearances on 106 & Park, to most recently winning the Entertainer of the Year trophy at the 55th NAACP Image Awards. From his chart-topping hits, electrifying performances, and unforgettable vocals to his signature moves and sound, USHER continues to stand on culture, setting new standards for the music industry and Black Excellence. We look forward to creating an amazing lineup to pay tribute to our global icon.”
