Urban One Honors 2021

During the 5th annual Urban One Honors, Yandy Smith, Trina Braxton and LeToya Luckett chatted with BOSSIP about cultural icons.

Kenneth Gamble and Leon A. Huff helped shape the sound of soul in the '70s with their work as a songwriting duo, who also had their own label, Philadelphia International Records. Their relevance continues today, thanks in part to their music constantly being sampled by everyone from Meg Thee Stallion to Drake.

The 2021 third annual Urban One Honors will honor the accomplishments of African American women in this year's tribute show premiering this Sunday. This year's theme is 'Women Leading the Change' and it aims to highlight the extraordinary contributions of women.
