Today we honor the life and legacy of the incomparable @MalcolmJamalWar. An actor, director, artist, and cultural force who left a lasting mark on the world and The Apollo stage. Rest in power, #MalcolmJamalWarner. Your legacy lives on. 🖤

Long before handing out 🍒 in Vegas, @Usher had the ladies going wild! He’s the definition of 90’s fine in this performance of “You Make Me Wanna” for #ShowtimeAtTheApollo. We can’t decide if our favorite part about this clip is the vocals, or the wardrobe malfunction 😂
