Additionally, Kirk Franklin was honored with the same award, and Pharrell was tapped for the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award.

Raven-Symoné Shows Out For Tribute
The day after the ceremony videos of Brandy’s tribute hit the internet. Several clips show Raven-Symoné in the center of more than 10 dancers in a choreographed moment. They all dressed in variations of black and red, including Rae. In one clip, the crowd went wild as the ‘That’s So Raven’ actress brought back some of her signature moves from the early 2000s and seemingly blew a kiss at Brandy near the end of the performance. Rae even gave a lil’ twerk, and had the audience throwing up their hands, with jaws hanging!
