Ne-Yo Shares The Importance Of Unity By Hosting Urban One Honors On MLK Day

Urban One Honors: The Soundtrack of Black America Premieres MLK Day 2022
On this historic day for Martin Luther King Jr., Ne-Yo is bringing together titans from the music industry as part of the 2022 Urban One Honors.

This year’s Urban One Honors is shining a spotlight on a superstar group of honorees including Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Timbaland, Tasha Cobbs Leonard, Jennifer Hudson and more.

Hosted by GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and producer Ne-Yo, the trailblazing show is bringing together audiences across the country on MLK Day.

"Everybody is familiar with what Martin Luther King's ultimate dream was... and that was basically, in layman's terms, for everybody to rock together. Under this skin and whatever color it is, we're all one tribe. For this show to fall on this day, with that message... it just makes perfect sense. It was meant to happen this way. For me to be bestowed the honor of hosting this show, there's not words that I can put together to say how grateful and appreciative I am," Ne-Yo said.

Catch the 2022 Urban One Honors Monday, January 17th starting at 8 p.m. ET/PT on TV One and Cleo TV.
