BET Is Where The Holidays Are Wrapped In Black
BET Media Group is cooking up an exciting holiday pop-up event, heralded as BET Where the Holidays Are Wrapped in Black, this coming Tuesday, December 3, from 3–7 PM outside the iconic Apollo Theater in Harlem, NYC.
The late-afternoon affair extraordinaire will feature performances by R&B sensation JACQUEES, along with The Hip Hop Carolers led by Zebulan Ellis - guests will enjoy gourmet treats from the Baltimore-based, Black-owned donut shop Cloudy Donut.
JACQUEES was the natural choice to headline. And in the current cuffing season, he has always made music that could easily put you in the mood, and on his sultry latest offering, Baby Making, the R&B virtuoso continues to push the boundaries of sensuality. The project delivers a masterclass in seduction that showcases his artistry at its most refined and daring. JACQUEES, a multiplatinum singer, songwriter, producer, and R&B superstar has seduced the culture with a string of bold bedroom-ready bangers, stacking up streams in the billions, earning nine gold, platinum, or multiplatinum-certified hits, and selling out shows everywhere along the way.
This mastery of JACQUEES' craft has been years in the making. Audiences initially got to know the Decatur, GA native a decade ago when he turned up with his 19 EP. After catching the attention of CASH MONEY RECORDS, JACQUEES notched back-to-back Top 5 debuts on the Billboard Top R&B Albums chart with the gold-certified 4275 [2018] and King of R&B [2019]. Hip-hop icon Future notably served as executive producer on 2022's Sincerely For You, which emerged as JACQUEES' most critically-acclaimed body of work to date.
Throughout his career, JACQUEES has built an impressive catalog of hits, including the double-platinum "B.E.D." and "YOU", platinum "At The Club" featuring Dej Loaf, "Come Thru", "Ocean" with TK Kravitz, gold "Your Peace" featuring Lil Baby and "What's On Your Mind" with K Camp. JACQUEES' versatility as an artist shines through his collaborations with industry heavyweights like Summer Walker, Rich Homie Quan, 6LACK, Latto, Killer Mike, T.I., Young Thug, and Jermaine Dupri. However, JACQUEES does what he does best on his very aptly titled 2024 EP, Baby Making.
