Steve Aoki to Be Honored With Music Vanguard Award at 2016 Unforgettable Gala: Exclusive

For 15 years, the Unforgettable Gala has celebrated Asian-American trailblazers in the entertainment industry and their 2016 iteration is shaping up to be their biggest and most prestigious. That's in thanks to part to Steve Aoki, who Fuse can exclusively announce will be honored with the Music Vanguard Award at the Dec. 10 ceremony in Los Angeles.

2016 has been a major year for the electronic musician/producer. In addition to releasing his 4OKI EP in July, Aoki dropped his new Beat Bomb mobile game this summer, starred in his own Netflix documentary I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, and, perhaps most impressively, celebrated the 20th anniversary of his Dim Mak Records that culminated with a special, celebratory stage at Electric Zoo 2016.
