Lucky Daye accepts the Torchbearer Award at Billboard's 2024 R&B No.1s Party.
Carl Lamar:
What are you doing, can I have a yes? Oh, I love this. I like this. I like this. I'm here to present the next award to a brother of mine, a centuries-old king of love ballads and pillow talk confessionals. Lucky Daye has become the new blueprint of the era in R&B. Women swoon, because when this bro screams he's just smooth as butter. After breaking out 2019 with “Painted,” Lucky Daye put the world on notice and let them know that New Orleans isn't just home to Frank Ocean, but another R&B superstar who can take the genre forward. Aligning with D'Mile early in his career, Lucky became a risk-taker, pushing the boundaries of his creativity as evidenced by his new album 'Algorithm'. His versatility remains unparalleled there, as he dances through various soundscapes with relative ease. Ultimately, the R&B gods rewarded him for his efforts, as he scored his first R&B Adult No. 1 this year as a lead artist with “That's You.” From songwriter to Grammy Award winner, Lucky Daye is one of the reasons why R&B will continue to shine for years to come. So, without further ado, Billboard would like to present this year's Torchbearer Award to Lucky Daye.
