The annual event takes place during Grammy week each year, and pays tribute to a trailblazing female artist.
This year, Erykah Badu was honored for her influence in the fields of R&B, pop music and fashion.
“From the time that she first hit the scene we all fell in love with the genius that is Erykah Badu,” said Essence editor-in-chief, Vanessa De Luca. “It is only fitting that we honor the accomplishments of our neo-soul queen whose remarkable artistry still moves us 20 years later.”
The Grammy Awards will air this Sunday, February 12th.
