The Black Music and Entertainment Walk of Fame (BMEWOF) Crown Jewel of Excellence Black Music Month Class of 2026 Induction will be held on Monday, June 1, 2026.
The Crown Jewel of Excellence emblems for June 2026 – and for every class of inductees moving forward – will continue to be added at the BMEWOF’s location in historic downtown Atlanta, preserved for all the world to see, and for generations to come. (located at the intersection of M.L.K. Jr. Drive and Northside Drive – adjacent to Mercedes Benz Stadium)
Founded by Catherine Brewton, Demmette Guidry, and Michael Mauldin, the Walk of Fame was created to ensure that the contributions of Black artists, executives, leaders, and change-makers are recognized in a way that reflects both their excellence and their cultural significance. Bishop Paul S. Morton is among the honores who also include the Honorable Maynard H. Jackson, Davido, Ludacris, Organized Noize and Jack the Rapper.
Bishop Morton is the Founding Bishop of the Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship International, Founder of Changing A Generation Ministries in Atlanta, GA and the Overseer of Greater St. Stephen Ministries in New Orleans, LA. He is a gifted author, singer and national recording artist.
