Today, the Black American Music Association (BAMA) and Georgia Entertainment Caucus (GEC) announced the names of the twelve inaugural inductees for the new Atlanta landmark, The Black Music & Entertainment Walk of Fame.

Amongst the honorees are Beyoncé (Mainstream Female), Usher (Mainstream Male), Missy Elliot (Hip Hop Female), Outkast (Hip Hop Male), Michael Jackson (Legacy Artists), Sean Love Combs (Mainstream Mogul), Shirley Caesar (Gospel Female), and Kirk Franklin (Gospel Male).

The Black Music & Entertainment Walk of Fame was announced back in February along with its chosen foundational inductees, Quincy Jones, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, and Otis Redding, and was designed “to honor iconic individuals and organizations that have impacted Black culture and community alongside those who continue to lead us into the future,” in time for Black Music Month in June.

It’s being installed in the historic downtown Atlanta area on the sidewalks of Martin Luther King Jr. and Northside and will be unveiled at a formal induction ceremony on June 17.

“Our first round of inductees includes many of my colleagues, and I am excited to celebrate their vast contributions to the preservation of Black Music and Entertainment,” stated one of GEC’s founders, Catherine Brewton. “The BMEWOF crown jewel of excellence emblems— designed by renowned artist D.L. Warfield and created in collaboration with sculptor and historian Ed Dwight—will be housed in front of the Mercedes Benz Dome, one of Atlanta’s most historic landmarks.”

Beyonce is extending her help for those affected by the winter storms.

Malia Obama has reportedly signed on to write for an upcoming streaming series helmed by Donald Glover, who just inked an eight-figure production deal with Amazon Prime.

Glover’s new pact with the streaming platform will see the Emmy and Grammy winner produce a number of as-yet undeveloped television projects, such as a potential new series dubbed “Hive.” He tapped writer Janine Nabers (“Watchmen”) to help lead the team which includes the former First Daughter of the United States, the Hollywood Reporter first reported.

Although the plot is tightly under wraps, sources have revealed that “Hive” will center around a Beyoncé-like character.

Amazon declined to comment. Reps for Glover, also known as recording artist Childish Gambino, did not immediately respond to The Post’s requests for comment.

Beyoncé’s BeyGOOD Foundation and Adidas are teaming up with Houston's Bread of Life to help those who have been affected by the deadly winter storms in Texas and nearby states. According to a press release, people who are in need of immediate financial assistance — up to $1,000 — are asked to apply to their Disaster Relief Assistance Application Form.

Saint Supply, a wellness company that Beyonce invested in, released its first product - Living Elixir olive oil.

Harvard University will have a course that will explore powerful women called "Black is Queen: the Divine Feminine in Kush", inspired by Beyoncé's “Black is King” visual album.

Black Is Queen: The Divinie Feminine in Kush
Date: Thursday, March 25, 2021, 6:00pm to 7:00pm
Location: Online

Solange Ashby, Adjunct Professor, Department of Classics and Ancient Studies, Barnard College

The prominence of powerful goddesses and queens in the Nubian Kingdom of Kush (now Northern Sudan) highlights the unusually high status of women in this ancient African society and serves as a fitting focus for the study of female power in the ancient world. Using temple inscriptions found in Egypt and Nubia, the rich funerary goods found in royal burials, and temple and tomb imagery, Solange Ashby will discuss how ancient Africans of the Nile Valley understood female power and presence. Songs from Beyoncé’s recent production “Black Is King” will be woven into this presentation on Kushite queens to emphasize the power and centrality of the African queen mother in her royal family and kingdom.

New promotional photo for ICY PARK has been released online. Look for the Beyonce x adidas Ivy Park 2021 Winter Collection to begin releasing February 18th at select retailers and adidas.com!

Beyoncé: Ice Princess.

That’s the visual inspired by Icy Park, the singer’s latest drop in her Adidas x Ivy Park collection.

The third iteration of the collection is designed to bring the street to the slopes with an assortment of apparel, footwear and accessories that blend alpine-inspired elements with classic streetwear references.

The size-inclusive collection is intended to inspire “creativity, individuality and imagination” in its wearers, according to the partners. Think faux sheepskin and performance towel terry materials that add texture to a range of cozy pieces. The collection also introduces a new Ivy Park monogram on some of the apparel and accessories, while others sport a playful ski tag print.

#ICYPARK Coming Soon.

The nominees have been revealed for the MTV Africa Music Awards Kampala 2021 (MAMA), with Beyoncé up for 2 awards. The show will be held virtually, in partnership with Uganda, on 20 February 2021.
