On February 12, two days after the Grammy Awards honor the longstanding history of Motown Records, music’s and Motown’s best will gather at Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theater for an even bigger tribute to the Detroit-based label.
“Motown 60: A Grammy Celebration,” which has been described as a star-studded Grammy-presented tribute concert, will feature performances by Motown legends, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross and Stevie Wonder.
Hosted by comedian Cedric the Entertainer, alongside Robinson, the concert will also feature the soulful renditions of a few Motown classics performed by the likes of John Legend, Fantasia, Boyz II Men, Chloe x Halle, Ciara, Tori Kelly, Ne-Yo and more.
Despite the concert’s February taping, the show is set to air April 21, Easter Sunday, on CBS.
In the meantime, it remains unclear if other performers will be joining Jennifer Lopez for the Motown tribute during the awards show.
