With profound sadness, we honor the life and legacy of #KikiShepard. She was a cherished member of The Apollo family and the incomparable voice and presence that helped define our stage for a generation. For more than 15 years.

Ant Edwards. President Barack Obama.
It began at Team USA Training camp and turned into a game of one-on-one we didn’t know we needed.

Just seeing the awful news that Kiki Shepard passed away today after suffering a massive heart attack. She was 74. I just saw her Feb. 12 at the NBA All-Star Weekend Gospel Celebration. She asked me to play in her annual golf tournament. I said yes and we traded numbers. We all knew her from Showtime At The Apollo. She was a legend! RIP, Kiki.

This black woman is wearing on her chest the original Poll tax bill from Alabama in 1960 where she had to make the choice back then of whether to vote or feed her family especially when you only made $2 dollars a week so she fed her family instead! The Save Act Now! 🤬
