Maxwell To Receive The 'Legend' Award At The 2021 "Soul Train Awards" Presented By BET
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The BET announced three-time GRAMMY award-winning singer-songwriter and producer Maxwell will receive the 'Legend' award at the 2021 "Soul Train Awards". Award-winning and multiplatinum singer/songwriter, actor, entrepreneur, and author Ashanti will be the recipient of the 'Lady of Soul' honor. The 2021 "Soul Train Awards" premieres Sunday, November 28 at 8 PM ET/PT on BET and BET Her.
"It's an honor to be presented with the Legend award by a community that's been growing with me throughout my career," said Maxwell. "I'm so grateful to be sharing this moment with everyone and returning to the Apollo for an evening of excellence."
"I'm honored to be recognized as this year's 'Lady of Soul' honoree," said Ashanti. "This is a full circle moment for me because I received the 'Aretha Franklin Entertainer of the Year' Award at the Lady of Soul Awards in 2002. As we commemorate 50 years of Soul Train, I'm proud to be a part of this legacy and to return to the Apollo to celebrate."

Additionally, BET has released the official nominations for the 2021 "Soul Train Awards" recognizing the best in Soul and R&B, which will also celebrate Soul Train's 50th anniversary.

H.E.R. leads the 2021 "Soul Train Awards" nominations with an impressive eight nods for 'Best R&B/Soul Female Artist,' 'Song of the Year,' 'Album of the Year,' 'The Ashford and Simpson Songwriter's Award (x2),' 'Best Collaboration (x2),' and 'Video of the Year'.

Dynamic best-friend duo Tisha Campbell and Tichina Arnold will return as co-hosts of the 2021 "Soul Train Awards," bringing their irreplaceable energy and hilarious comedic talents to this year's show.

Maxwell has artfully managed to transfix music lovers for more than two decades, releasing five studio albums, all in his own time and all duly anointed as classics. The soul singer redefined soul music in April of 1996 when he released his critically acclaimed debut on Columbia Music, Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite. It earned GRAMMY® nominations, double-platinum status and RIAA gold for the single "Ascension (Don't Ever Wonder)." Platinum albums Embrya (1998) and Maxwell Now (2001) followed. After an eight-year break between album releases, BLACKsummers'night (2009) debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and won two GRAMMY awards, including Best R&B Album. To date, Maxwell has achieved 4 platinum album certifications from the RIAA. His last album blackSUMMERS'night, the second installment of his musical trilogy, earned Maxwell his third-GRAMMY® (Best R&B Song for "Lake By The Ocean") an NAACP Image Award (Outstanding Male Artist), and a Soul Train Award (Best R&B/Soul Male Artist).

Award-winning singer/songwriter, actor, entrepreneur, and author Ashanti has been tapped to receive the seventh annual Soul Train 'Lady of Soul' Award. Among her numerous accolades, Ashanti has received several Soul Train Awards throughout her illustrious career, including R&B/Soul Album - Female, Independent R&B/Soul Performance, two awards for R&B/ Soul Single - Female and the Lady of Soul Awards' Aretha Franklin Entertainer of the Year Award. Ashanti's expansive multiplatinum discography has brought her to the top of the charts, meriting eight Billboard awards and a GRAMMY® for Best Contemporary R&B Album (Ashanti). She was the first female to make Billboard history by having her first three chart entries land in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, a feat previously accomplished only by The Beatles. With a career that spans decades, Ashanti has established herself as a staple in music and will also receive a Star on the infamous Hollywood Walk of Fame in April 2022.

BET Soul joins the 2021 "Soul Train Awards" celebration by dedicating a full hour to each honoree's collection of music videos.
