The SOAR Awards are executive produced by Royal W. Jackson, executive vice president, Impact Network. The show is presented in partnership with SOAR Radio, which originated the SOAR Awards in 2017.

“As the creator of SOAR Radio and the SOAR Awards, I am immensely proud of the incredible journey we’ve embarked on since our inaugural show in 2017,” Justin Francis, SOAR Radio and Awards founder and CEO, said in a statement. “We are thrilled to partner with the Impact Network, a collaboration that elevates the SOAR Awards to new heights.”

This is the first music honors special for The Impact Network, a Black-founded and operated cable network based in Detroit. The show is set to premiere two days after Juneteenth, which is celebrated on June 19, and right in the heart of Black Music Month. 

“Honoring gospel legends through heartfelt tributes not only preserves their contributions but also inspires future generations,” Impact Network Founder and CEO Wayne T. Jackson said in a statement. “We are excited to share this moving event with our viewers and continue to champion the enduring power of gospel music.”

In addition to the SOAR Awards, Impact Network is creating 30-second vignettes that celebrate influential Black music figures and musical moments across various genres.

Impact Network recently aired its first tentpole special, The 5th Annual Pink Awards, which recognizes achievements in the fight against breast cancer.
