Awards

Co-written with: Michael Jackson and Bernard Belle
Recorded by: Michael Jackson
Chart peak: No. 3, Hot 100, March 7, 1992
This record that was all about the hook: “Do you remember the time when we fell in love?” I put myself in that position with my fiancé at that moment, because we were falling out of love, and I always go back to that line. I was with Michael and he listened to four [of my] demos before that song, and we got to that fifth track — and after hearing it for like 16 bars, Michael said, “Stop.” I actually thought I was getting fired. And the next thing I know he said, ‘Can I talk to you in my office?’
And I go into the office, and I’m nervous as hell. This is my first time playing demos for him. And I see is this beautiful collage he was working on. I made him use that as the cover for the album, but that’s a different story. He said, “What is that first chord?” I said to him, “I don’t know. I can’t name the chord for you.” He gave a little laugh and said, “I’m not trying to put you on the spot, I just want you to know that you have blown me away with that chord. I’ve never heard it in my whole entire career.” It’s actually a C 7 augment. So you’re playing C, E, G, B flat, E flat. It’s a church chord.
When we finally get to the studio to start recording vocals after we got the lyrics from my friend Bernard Belle — who I have to mention, because he just took new jack swing to the next level — Michael comes in and sings the first verse. And we all get excited. And then he takes a break, and we think he’s going to work out with his vocal coach Seth Riggs, and [he] keeps us waiting. So I go in the back and I say, “Seth, where is Michael?” He had slipped out the back. And then Michael calls me. He’s on a plane going to Switzerland. He didn’t mention it. This just gives the people an idea that creativity has no time. It’s whenever, whatever, however. I was just floored.
Just two days before the 2023 Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Dinner, the organization announced that “for personal reasons,” Snoop Dogg has deferred his induction. However, the artist born Calvin Broadus Jr. intends to be inducted with the class of 2024 on June 13, 2024.
Snoop is the second of the seven songwriters who were originally announced as inductees on Jan. 13 to back out. Sade Adu also withdrew, with the SHOF saying only that she will be inducted with a future class.
The five other inductees who were announced five months ago – Glen Ballard, Gloria Estefan, Jeff Lynne, Teddy Riley and Liz Rose – are still onboard. In addition, Tim Rice will be honored with the Johnny Mercer Award, the organization’s highest honor. Post Malone will receive the Hal David Starlight Award, which “was established to honor gifted songwriters who are at an apex in their careers and are making a significant impact in the music industry via their original songs,” according to the SHOF.
The 52nd annual Songwriters Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Dinner is slated for Thursday at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.
The SHOF also announced that Louis Bell, Jacob Dickey, Emilio Estefan, Sasha Estefan, Doug E. Fresh, Myles Frost, Heather Headley, Alan Menken, Valerie Simpson, Keith Sweat and Joe Walsh, among others, will either present and/or perform at the event.
Menken and Rice shared an Oscar for best original song and a Grammy for song of the year for their ballad “A Whole New World” from Aladdin. Emilio Estefan is Gloria Estefan’s husband. Sasha is their 10-year-old grandson. Frost won a Tony last year for his performance as Michael Jackson in MJ. Riley worked with the superstar on such tracks as “Remember the Time.” Riley also worked with Keith Sweat on his 1992 hit “Why Me Baby?” (featuring LL Cool J).
Many of the other presenters and performers also have ties to the inductees and honorees.
There are approximately 400 inductees in the Hall of Fame. A songwriter with a notable catalog of songs qualifies for induction 20 years after the first commercial release of a song.
The 2023 Premios Juventud nominations arrived Tuesday (June 13) with Bad Bunny, Becky G, Grupo Frontera, Maluma, Peso Pluma, Rauw Alejandro, Rosalía, Shakira and TINI leading the list with nine nods each. They are followed by Camilo, Karol G, Manuel Turizo and María Becerra who are each up for eight awards.

The Recording Academy has added three new categories for the 66th annual Grammy Awards, which are set for Sunday Feb. 4, 2024 – best African music performance, best alternative jazz album, and best pop dance recording. This brings the total number of categories to 94, the highest total since the number reached an all-time peak of 109 in 2010.
In addition, the existing categories of producer of the year, non-classical and songwriter of the year, non-classical will be moved to the general field. The general field has long consisted of four categories – album, record and song of the year plus best new artist. These four categories are often unofficially called the Big Four.
By moving the producer and songwriter awards to the general field, all Grammy voters can in these non-genre-specific categories without using up a field. (All voters can vote in the general field and then in no more than three other fields.)
Producer of the year, non-classical was added in 1974. Songwriter of the year, non-classical was added last year. Thom Bell and Tobias Jesso Jr. were the inaugural recipients, respectively.
These category additions and amendments were passed at the Recording Academy’s most recent semiannual board of trustees meeting held last month.
“The Recording Academy is proud to announce these latest category changes to our awards process,” Harvey Mason jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, said in a statement. “These changes reflect our commitment to actively listen and respond to the feedback from our music community, accurately represent a diverse range of relevant musical genres, and stay aligned with the ever-evolving musical landscape.
“By introducing these three new categories, we are able to acknowledge and appreciate a broader array of artists – and relocating the producer of the year and songwriter of the year categories to the general field ensures that all our voters can participate in recognizing excellence in these fields. We are excited to honor and celebrate the creators and recordings in these categories, while also exposing a wider range of music to fans worldwide.”
With these three new categories, the Academy has added 10 categories in the last three years. That’s the most categories the Academy has added in any three- year period since 1959-61, when it added 12.
Bill Freimuth, the Academy’s former senior vice president, awards, led an effort to pare down the number of categories. The number nosedived from 109 to 78 in 2011, but has since been creeping back up. There is an ongoing debate between those who think “less is more” (that having a glut of categories devalues the award) and those who think “more is more” (that it makes more creators happy, which will turn Grammy critics in the creative community into Grammy boosters).
The Recording Academy accepts proposals from members of the music community throughout the year. The awards and nominations committee, comprised of Academy voting members of diverse genres and backgrounds, meets annually to review proposals to update award categories, procedures and eligibility guidelines.
Here’s a closer look at the three new Grammy categories:
Best African Music Performance
Dick Clark Productions (DCP) and Eldridge have acquired all the Golden Globes’ assets, rights and properties from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA). The transaction will result in the wind-down of the HFPA and its membership. The proceeds from the transaction, plus the existing resources of the HFPA, will transition into a newly-formed Golden Globe Foundation that will continue the HFPA’s legacy of entertainment-related charitable giving.
As part of the transaction, DCP and its partners will plan, host and produce the annual Golden Globe Awards show and pursue commercial opportunities for the Golden Globes across the globe. The 81st Annual Golden Globe Awards is set to take place on Sunday, Jan. 7, 2024.
“We are excited to close on this much anticipated, member-approved transaction and transition from a member-led organization to a commercial enterprise,” said former HFPA president Helen Hoehne.
“Today marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the Golden Globes,” Eldgridge chairman Todd Boehly said in a statement. “My partners at DCP and I are grateful to Helen and team for their commitment to the successful implementation of a robust approach to governance, the expansion of the diverse and international voting body, implementing a professional, safe, and accountable environment, and trusting new ownership with a new direction for the Globes.”
“As stewards of the Golden Globe Awards, our mission is to continue creating the most dynamic awards ceremony on live television viewed across the world,” Jay Penske, CEO/chairman/founder of Penske Media and CEO of DCP, said in a statement. “We have a great team in place to grow this iconic brand and captivate new and existing audiences to celebrate the very best in television and motion pictures.”
The Golden Globe Awards will be controlled by DCP, the world’s largest producer and proprietor of televised live event entertainment programming.
A premier entertainment award since 1944, the annual Golden Globes honors achievements in both television and film. Over the last three decades, licensing fees from the ceremony have enabled donations of more than $55 million to entertainment-related charities including scholarship programs, film restoration projects and humanitarian efforts. This funding has also supported diverse programs in partnership with advocacy groups aimed at promoting greater access in Hollywood for underserved communities.
Penske Media Corporation, Billboard‘s parent company, is a part-owner of dick clark productions and has a partnership with Eldridge.
Australian comedian Barry Humphries, internationally renowned for his over-the-top stage persona Dame Edna Everage, is posthumously awarded a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC) as part of the King’s Birthday Honours celebrations.

Humphries, who died last month, aged 89, was saluted with the highest honor for “eminent service to the arts” as a comedian, actor, author, satirist and entertainer, and for “the promotion of Australian culture, and as a patron of organisations”. Just six ACs were awarded, from a total list of 1,191 Australians recognized for their achievements.
A law school dropout, Humphries found major success as an actor, writer and entertainer in Britain in the 1970s, both with his Dame Edna creation, the grotesque cultural attache Sir Les Patterson, and others characters. He remained an active entertainer, touring Britain last year with his one-man show The Man Behind the Mask.
The late funnyman leads recipients from the fields of entertainment and music, which includes soprano Marina Prior, who was awarded a Member of the Order of Australia (OAM) for her “significant service to musical theatre as a singer and performer.”
Also, Dead Can Dance co-founder Lisa Gerrard was appointed Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for “service to the performing arts through music.”
The honors roll marks the first time birthday salutes were awarded on behalf of King Charles, following his coronation in May.
The awards were established in 1975 by Queen Elizabeth II of England and the commonwealth states, which include Australia, in recognition of special achievements by the country’s citizens. Until now, they’ve been known as Queen’s Birthday Honours.
“Recipients have made substantial contributions and had a significant impact at the local, national or international level,” reads a statement from the Governor-General. “Some are volunteers, others have had a remarkable impact in professional roles – many have done both. They are all inspiring and their service is valued by us all.”

Kimberly Akimbo, a new musical from composer Jeanine Tesori and lyricist and librettist David Lindsay-Abaire, was the top winner at the 2023 Tony Awards, which aired live on CBS on Sunday (June 11) from the historic United Palace in the Washington Heights neighborhood of New York City.
Kimberly Akimbo won five awards – best musical, best actress (Victoria Clark), best featured actress (Bonnie Milligan), best original score and best musical book. Tesori and Lindsay-Abaire shared the award for best original score.
Tesori previously won in that category for Fun Home (2015), alongside Lisa Kron. Tesori is just the second woman to win multiple awards in this category. Betty Comden won three alongside her partner Adolph Green – Hallelujah, Baby! (1968), On the Twentieth Century (1978) and The Will Rogers Follies (1991). Lindsay-Abaire won a second Tony for his book to the musical for Kimberly Akimbo. These are his first Tony awards. He had previously been nominated in both categories for his work on Shrek – The Musical, a previous collab with Tesori.
Stage adaptations of two classic films, Some Like It Hot and Life of Pi, each won multiple awards. Some Like It Hot won best actor (J. Harrison Ghee), best orchestrations, best choreography and best costume design. Life of Pi won best scenic design, best lighting design, and best sound design.
Leopoldstadt also won four awards, including best play. Revivals of Parade and Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street each won two awards. Parade beat Sweeney Todd for best revival of a musical. The original production was nominated for best musical in 1999, but lost to Fosse. Interscope and Immersive Records are among the Tony-winning producers of the Parade revival.
For the first time, the winners for lead and featured actor in a musical are both gender non-conforming. Ghee, who uses he/she/they pronouns, identifies as nonbinary or pansexual. Alex Newell, the featured actor winner for Shucked, identifies as gender non-conforming.
Two musicals, New York, New York and Shucked, each won one award. Five nominated musicals and musical revivals were shut out: & Juliet, Almost Famous, Camelot, Into the Woods and KPOP.
Suzan-Lori Parks’ Topdog/Underdog won best revival of a play. The work was nominated as best play in 2002, but lost to Edward Albee’s The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia?
Ariana DeBose hosted the Tonys for the second year in a row. The show also streamed live and on demand on Paramount+. Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss produced the show, with Weiss also serving as director.
The 2022/23 eligibility season began May 5, 2022 and ended April 27, 2023. Tony Awards in 26 competitive categories were voted on by 769 designated Tony voters within the theatre community.
Julianne Hough co-hosted a pre-show, “Act One,” for the second year in a row, this time with Skylar Astin.

On Thursday (June 8), BET announced the nominees for the 23rd annual BET Awards, with Drake and GloRilla leading the pack.
The “Search & Rescue” rapper clocks in at seven nominations, including best male hip-hop artist, best male R&B/pop artist, best group with 21 Savage and album of the year for Her Loss with 21 Savage. Like Drake, GloRilla’s nominations are split pretty evenly between solo and collaborative efforts, including best female hip hop artist, best new artist, album of the year for Anyways, Life’s Great, video of the year for “Tomorrow 2” with Cardi B, and two nominations for best collaboration (“F.N.F. Let’s Go” and “Tomorrow 2”).
Last year, GloRilla took home best breakthrough hip hop artist of the year award at the BET Hip Hop Awards.

The 2023 Tony Awards will feature several musical numbers in addition to performances from all of the nominees for best musical and best revival of a musical – long a Tony tradition.
The Neil Diamond musical A Beautiful Noise didn’t receive a single nomination, but will still get a featured slot on the show. Will Swenson stars in the jukebox musical built around the hits of the durable star. The 2022 revival of Funny Girl fared just a little better with Tony voters – it received one nomination for Jared Grimes as best featured actor in a musical. Lea Michele replaced Beanie Feldstein, the original star of the revival, but, as a replacement, Michele wasn’t eligible for a Tony nomination. That show will also be featured on this year’s show (which it wasn’t last year).
In addition, the show will feature a performance by Joaquina Kalukango, last year’s Tony winner for best performance by a leading actress in a musical for Paradise Square. The performance of two songs from the score, “Paradise Square” and “Let It Burn,” was a highlight of last year’s show. Even so, an encore booking is highly unusual.
The show will also feature special performances to honor Joel Grey and John Kander, 2023 recipients of special Tony awards for lifetime achievement in the theatre.
The 76th Annual Tony Awards will of course feature performances from the casts of the five Tony nominees for best musical (& Juliet, Kimberly Akimbo, New York, New York, Shucked and Some Like It Hot) and the four nominees for best revival of a musical (Camelot, Into the Woods, Parade and Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet Street).
The 76th Annual Tony Awards, hosted by Oscar winner and Tony nominee Ariana DeBose, will air live from the historic United Palace in New York City’s Washington Heights, Sunday, June 11 from 8:00-11:00 p.m. ET/5:00-8:00 p.m. PT on the CBS Television Network, and streaming live and on demand on Paramount+.
Julianne Hough and Skylar Astin will co-host The Tony Awards: Act One, a live pre-show on Pluto TV from 6:30-8:00 p.m. ET/3:30-5:00 p.m. PT. Viewers can access The Tony Awards: Act One on their smart TV, streaming device, mobile app or online by going to Pluto TV and clicking on the “Pluto TV Celebrity” channel (no payment, registration or sign-in required).
The Tony Awards is produced in collaboration with Tony Award Productions, a joint venture of the Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing, and White Cherry Entertainment. Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss are executive producers for White Cherry Entertainment. Weiss will serve as director.
The Tony Awards has been broadcast nationally since 1967 and has been on CBS since 1978.
