Man they should've had this award 25 years ago

Their story is incredible...movie needed about them

This is long overdue!!! They crafted an changed the game. Everything you hear on the radio was influenced by them.

These men have sooooo many hits, hundreds!

I love Jimmy’s voice and I loved his speech.

Well deserved. These two are so deserving of this honor. Just like the past honorees like Babyface and Teddy Riley, the music alone spans generations and it is timeless and classic. Never goes out of style. 👊👊👊👊👊👊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

You never hear bad stuff about them

Thank you Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis for giving us the greatest music we jam to still til this day🙏🏾 Congrates on y’all award,stay blessed 🙏🏾

I am so happy they are still alive to see this

Baby Face, Jimmy & Terry were my childhood!

When he stomp his feet and said his mama said cut that stuff off🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

"Hits and #1 records are statistics"..."but at the end of the day what matters/counts it's how it makes you feel, how it moves your soul, your humanity"...powerful words...period...

We need a movie on these two. That's how masterful they are to the world of R&B.

This honor is long overdue!!!! Their work spans DECADES!!!!!! They're so humble!

Jimmy Jam N Terry Lewis are beyond legends. What they did for Rnb, Pop and New Jack Swing is remarkable.

I saw Terry Lewis & his wife after the All Star game one year in matching full mink coats looking like royalty..cool was oozing from them

Thank you Prince for being us The Time of course Jimmy Jam& Terry Lewis everything they touch turn Into Gold it's about time they Get Credit for all they have done Love You guys ❤.

Legends... legends... legends... legends... their discography is chapters long.

Omg he said Leon Sylvers who hasn't gotten a lot of credit

Finally...👏🏾👏🏾glad they finally got this award and shonuff need more. I’ve sang, danced off so many songs...my damn hips, 🦶🏾, knees ache 😖 now ..🤣🤣🤣

Congratulations!! Thank you Jimmy and Terry for all the wonderful, amazing music. The soundtrack of my young adulthood and on and on!! ❤❤💯🎶🎤

Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis’ acceptance speech was so good that it sounded like they were writing a song or two onstage in real time!

Jimmy Jam, n Terry Lewis,..long time coming, props, props, ab time...

OH MY! Thank you guys... All of those great, memorable, singalong and dance along songs..no cursing, dissing - and they were children and grandparent friendly too!

Maybe next year they will give Leon Sylvers the Legend Award!!

Legends for definite!! A long time coming!! The songs these guys created were the soundtrack to my teen years, my 20s, 30s etc! I’ve just hit 50 and I still adore their music and I always will! Their speeches were spot on, as long as we fans play their songs, these guys will be immortal! ❤️

Beautiful speeches!! Thank you Mr. Terry Lewis and Mr. Jimmy Jam!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💖

⚘⚘⚘Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis ⚘⚘⚘ Giving Honor🙌🏽 #LIVINGLEGEND

I love their speech, truthful, realness, knowledge, power about music, and the industry. And, Family has been a very special part of their lives Important. Very supportive wives and both of them have beautiful children. May, God continue to bless them and their families. I from old school so I understand! 🥰🥰🥰 Much, love from me!

These brothers are in a very small group of my favorite musician/producers. George Clinton, Jam & Lewis, Face, Prince, Mike and Luther. The 80's were so rich with musical talent. When the SOS band hit, I was in love with Jam & Lewis' music already! This award is well deserved and over due. Much love and respect. I'm a singer, songwriter, musician and producer myself and I've "borrowed" some of their brilliance for my own music. Again. Well deserved!

Congratulations. Long overdue. God bless.

Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis BIG thank you from Finland, your music has been soundtrack of my life, thank you for so beautiful music.

That's the way love goes. Masterpiece.

They need to come back and dominate the music industry again. I love these talented souls!!!

There's Ashford and Simpson and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis good music would not exist without those four powerhouses in their own respective decades

LISTENED TO THE NOISE BEFORE IT BECAME A SOUND! WOW! AWESOME!

... deserved tribute to underated Leon SYLVERS III, he is the one who actually initiated them! both Jam & Lewis and LAFace came through Solar.

HEART FELT SPEECH FROM JIMMY ,I JUST HOPE HE IS FINE , HE HAS LOST MAD WEIGHT.

People don’t understand, if it hadn’t been for these two, people would be saying JANET WHO

These guys are responsible for so many hits over the past 30 years, thanks fellows 💯

Jimmy has lost a ton of weight I almost didn't recognize him I love them both so much❤ Where's Janet

Millenials, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE take notes. This is what you want to aspire for LONGEVITY! Put away the auto tunes and start SANGING and playing live instruments.

Music is healing so true

I loved them the most out of all producers during 90s my teenage years. The most creative and diverse in style with no gimmick. Truly the legends.

Why do I feel sad listening to Jimmy's speech while looking at him? I noticed he said "living legends." Out of all this time in history they could have honored these guys prior in a 3 decade period, now all of a sudden? Something is off. I hope you OK Jimmy.

Jimmy jam and Terry Lewis rule! Long overdue and well deserved! ❤️💚💙

Congratulations to these two!!

Love these guys....THANK YOU

This Honor was long overdue. These Brothers brought us sooo many timeless jamz that will live on. Whatever they have planned with Babyface will be the takeover of R&B music from these Hollywood exes who don't give a shyt about us and our music. Thank you Brotha's for blessing us with your gift of music. I know whatever you touch will be heaven sent.

Long overdue!!!!!

There music is the soundtrack to my life. They fed my soul. Thank you so much.

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis deserve this award..They are legends and at one time music written and produced by them dominated the radio airwaves. Anything they touched was smoking hot. Let's not forget them bring behind the Icon Janet Jackson and her stellar music career. I'd love to see their biopic and I'd also like to see them judging on a talent competition like American Idol but for aspiring professional r&b singers. We need legends who've worn many hats in the industry.. singers, song writers..producers...real veterans not New Jack's and fly by night artists who lack longevity.

Amazing speech

True legends. Hit makers extraordinaire.

How can there be a Soul Train Awards with no Soul Train?!?!?! Someone needs to bring that legendary show BACK. I'm tired of all the Dances with the stars and Americas got talent shows...bring Soul Train Back

Black excellence 🌊🌊🌊

Long overdue for these masters. They are my idols and inspiration.

Congratulations & Thank You Jim & Terry

These guys are just GREAT! They have definitely made the world a much better place with their timeless music. They are the Gamble & Huff of our day.

I love them.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️

I watched him say turn that shit down 100 times 😂😂

Jimmy Jam is as big as Terry Lewis used to be and vice versa. OMFG my favorite 80s production team. Flight Tyme productions. Nothing but classic albums. Control. Rhythm Nation 1814. NE Heartbreak. Too many classic songs to name.

My Boys Jimmie Jam And Terry Lewis Congratulations

A Bruno Mars album produced Album by these guys would be epic

THANK YOU Mr.Jimmy Jam & Mr. Terry Lewis!!!

Well said by both guys. Jam and Lewis are greats.

*Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis have started or have been a part of all the niche music eras and outlasted them whereas the rest of them long since faded when those eras ended. They're much more than mere legends.*

These two are my heroes. Pioneers. Forget about statistics, the sounds they produced are OUT OF THIS WORLD and a standard that will always be bar raising. Love them.

Much love and Congratulations to both of them,this was WELL WAY OVERDUE! These supaproducers have been the soundtrack to many of our lives 🥰🌹🥂👍!!

Ham & Lewis well deserved salute! Great musicians & business men

Innovators. Thank you for the creativity and childhood!!

Jimmy has that Barack Obama sound and speech going on oh my goodness😃😍

I’m shocked at them only winning 5 Grammys.

Long overdue....Love these guys!!! #jamandlewisfan
