Esteemed songwriting duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis are set to be presented with the Legend Award at this year’s show.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest production tandems in music history, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis are set to be honored with the Legend Award at this year’s Soul Train Awards ceremony for their contributions to R&B music.

With a career that’s produced more than 100 gold, platinum, multi-platinum and diamond albums, the dynamic pair have worked with artists such as Janet Jackson, Boyz II Men, Usher, Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, Luther Vandross, George Michael and Earth, Wind and Fire, among many others.
