Grammy Week is getting more and more exciting as The Recording Academy and The Black Music Collective announced that Mariah Carey and Lenny Kravitz will be receiving the Global Impact Awards.
The Black Music Collective event will be held on Feb. 1, 2023, at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles.
Mariah Carey, Lenny Kravitz Awarded With Global Impact Awards
According to Billboard, the award will be presented at the Black Music Collective event which is one of the many events of Grammy Week.
The Global Impact Award is a CEO Merit Award that recognizes Black music creators "whose dedication to the art form has greatly influenced the industry and whose legacy of service inspires countless individuals worldwide, celebrating those who, through leadership and passion, empower others to embrace their authentic selves and contribute to positive change," Billboard says of the recognition.
The Global Impact Award was presented last year to Dr. Dre, Lil Wayne, Missy Elliott, and Epic Records CEO Sylvia Rhone.
Fans are delighted with the recognition, with some noting that this might be an indication that Mariah Carey would be attending the Grammy Awards.
"I think this means Mariah will be attending the Grammys, for the first time in years (or maybe even in over a decade)," a fan realized on Reddit, while another said "good! both are deserved"
