Clive Davis<\/a> was honored with the Legacy Award at the 2025 Apollo Theater Spring Benefit on Wednesday (June 4).<\/p>\n

The legendary music industry executive hit the red carpet of the star-studded gala wearing a metallic suit coat, and posed for photos with attendees like Busta Rhymes, Larry Jackson, Sherri Shepherd, Jawn Murray and more.<\/p>\n

The benefit reportedly raised<\/a> more than $5 million for the renovation of the iconic New York City landmark \u2014 which has served as a centerpiece of Black music, culture and artistry in the heart of Harlem for more than a century \u2014 and featured performances by Method Man, Rhymes, and Deborah Cox and Shoshana Bean.<\/p>\n

To help pay tribute to Davis, Whitney Houston\u2019s sister-in-law Pat Houston offered heartfelt remarks during the ceremony, reflecting on the record executive\u2019s unbreakable bond with the late superstar. \u201cI could never speak about Clive and not mention Whitney, and I can never speak about Whitney without speaking of Clive,\u201d she said. \u201cThe only thing I wish for tonight is Whitney were here to speak instead of me, because I know how proud she would be of you at this moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elsewhere over the course of the night, Teyana Taylor was the recipient of the Apollo Theater\u2019s first-ever Innovator Award, more than two decades after she first performed on its stage at just eight years old.<\/p>\n

Below, swipe through Billboard\u2019s gallery of photos from the Apollo\u2019s Spring Benefit, including snaps of Davis\u2019 acceptance speech, Cox and Bean\u2019s soaring duet, Rhymes\u2019 performance with an assist from Spliff Star and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
