Smokey Robinson and Motown Records mastermind Berry Gordy made history together in the 1960s, when they were instrumental in creating what Motown billed as: "The sound of Young America."
Now, the longtime friends and collaborators will make history again as the first two artists to be jointly honored as the MusiCares Persons of the Year. They will be celebrated Feb. 3 at the 32nd annual all-star MusiCares gala fundraising dinner concert at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
The glittery event takes place two days before the 2023 edition of the Grammy Awards are held at the adjacent Crypto.com Arena (formerly known as Staples Center). Grammy nominees will be announced next month.
