Usher Raymond | Musical Arts Award - It's been two decades since Usher stormed onto the scene with his self-titled debut. Since then, he has sold over 30 million records, including the RIAA Diamond certified Confessions. Because of the mark he has left on music and his grind that has no quit, the "Good Kisser" singer will be honored with the Musical Arts Award.(Photo: Kurt Iswarienko)Phylicia Rashad | Theatrical Arts Award - Phylicia Rashad rose to popularity in her matriarchal role as Claire Huxtable on The Cosby Show. After an eight-season run on the show, her infectious talents were brought to use in award-winning roles on stage and in film. With decades of work under her belt, we've only grown to love her more with every creative feat she takes on. We salute this year's Theatrical Awards honoree, Phylicia Rashad. (Photo: Matthew Jordan Smith)
