Warwick received a Kennedy Center award for his outstanding contributions to the arts. "I am thrilled that my work has been recognized and honored," he said in an interview with Planet Chronicle Digital. "It's an indescribable feeling to be recognized for all the hard work and dedication I've put into my craft."

The Kennedy Center Honors has recognized individuals in the performing arts for their significant contributions to American culture since 1978. The award is presented annually to five honorees at a December gala in Washington, D.C.

""Both Damon Warwick and his brother are incredibly proud of their mother, Dionne, who has done remarkable things throughout her life, both personally and for others," Dionne's son told Planet Chronicle Digital."

The mother-son duo currently have a song together, "I Kneel."

"How much more can you have than working with someone you love?" the legendary musician asked, stating that it was a "pleasure" to sing a song written by her son.

Like his mother, Damon also has a strong connection to his faith. "Our family prioritizes God in all that we do. We pray about it and trust that God will take care of the rest," he stated.

"People often come to us and express their prayers for us, but we don't reciprocate because it's not our place. However, when we pray for others, we do so sincerely, and that's just how it is. We always prioritize praying for God first and each other," Damon stated.

In England, "The Masked Singer" recently featured Warwick as a contestant. Unfortunately, she did not last long on the show, which was not surprising to her.

By now, someone should recognize my voice, she stated.

Dionne portrayed "Weather" on the show but was eliminated following the first installment.

In December, Warwick turned 83 and has no intention of slowing down her career.

Dionne Warwick's son reveals that his mother is not slowing down and he is struggling to keep up with her.

"Yes, I have ample time to slow down," she informed Planet Chronicle Digital. Damon asserted that "there is no such thing" as persuading his mother to relax and slow down a bit.

When it feels like work, we'll stop when we're ready and keep having fun and exploring the world until then. That's what we do, and Damon added that we try to keep up with her.
