The awards are scheduled to air Nov. 29 on Centric -- a new channel jointly operated by the BET and MTV Networks divisions of Viacom.
Actors Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard will co-host the awards first started by Don Cornelius, the creator of the syndicated music show "Soul Train."
The last awards show was held in 2007 in California.
