Last month, the Living Legends Foundation celebrated its 32nd anniversary by hosting its annual awards gala in Atlanta for the first time. The event honored several music industry luminaries, including Grammy-winning songwriting/production duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
In a touching moment, Jam shared that the foundation's Ray Harris Lifetime Achievement Award held special significance, as Harris was instrumental in the duo's early career. Lewis added that they were simply "two guys who like to make music," crediting the audience for making their hits successful.
Alongside Jam and Lewis, the foundation also recognized other notable figures, such as Zelma Redding, widow of soul legend Otis Redding, and the leadership team of Quality Control Music. However, the event's highlight was the celebration of six female executive trailblazers, including RCA Records' Samantha Selolwane and Right On! Digital publisher Cynthia Horner.
The awards ceremony served as a testament to the music industry's continued efforts to uplift and recognize the contributions of diverse talent, both on and off the stage.
