ASCAP Award Special Honorees!

Haven’t seen or heard much from Jermaine Dupri or Ne-Yo in the last few months, that doesn’t mean they are not working. In fact they are working so hard that the ASCAP also known as the annual Rhythm & Soul Music Awards will be honoring them both June 26th at their 27th annual show.


Jermaine Dupri & Ne-Yo To Receive ASCAP Honors!

Two of the hardest working men in the music game are being honored by The American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP). When JD isn’t riding NYC subways with Mariah Carey, he’s founding something, which is why he’s being given the Founders Award – So So Def, of course is a part of that. Neyo’s bomb song-writing skills has got him the ASCAP Golden Note Award. Milestone. Neyo shares the honor with previous honorees Diddy, LL Cool J, Stevie Wonder, and more. Congratulations fellas.
