Igår söndag gick den prestigefyllda galan Soul Train Awards 2021 av stapeln på Apollo Theater i New York City. På galan uppträdde bland andra Silk Sonic med låtar från deras nysläppta album “An Evening With Silk Sonic”. Den karismatiska duon tog även hem tre priser, däribland för Song of the Year men även Video of the Year och The Ashford and Simpson Songwriter’s Awards för låten “Leave The Door Open”.
Jazmine Sullivan hade också en stor kväll då hon tog hem både Best R&B / Soul Female Artist och Album of the Year med “Heaux Tales”. Därutöver ärades Ashanti med utmärkelsen Lady of Soul Award, varpå hon framförde en rad låtar från hennes diskografi tillsammans med gästande Fat Joe och Ja Rule. Maxwell prisades i sin tur för sin 25-åriga karriär med en Living Legend Award innan han själv ställde sig på scenen.
