America's only arts network will pay tribute to the GRAMMY(R) Awards by featuring some of the recording industry's biggest winners, including Kanye West, Adele, Bruno Mars, Whitney Houston and Justin Timberlake. Here are the highlights for the week:

Whitney Houston: The Greatest Love of All (1 hr) - Monday, February 6 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - From an early age, Grammy(R) Hall of Famer Whitney Elizabeth Houston showed the vocal range and star quality that would soon make her a legend in the music world. Winner of six Grammy awards, Houston was nominated a total of twenty-six times. This special features those who knew her as "Nippy," retraces her steps to stardom and revisits some of her most stunning performances.

Justin Timberlake: Dressed to Thrill (1 hr) - Tuesday, February 7 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - From humble beginnings in Shelby Forest singing in his father's church choir, to his first appearance as a Star Search contestant singing country at the age of 11, Justin Timberlake was destined for a life of fame. He joined the Mickey Mouse Club alongside Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Ryan Gosling and later formed the phenomenally successful boy band 'N Sync with colleague JC Chasez. With 38 Grammy nominations and nine wins, Timberlake is currently tied with Sting as the 10th most Grammy-nominated act in history.

Bruno Mars: Just the Way I Am (1 hr) - Wednesday, February 8 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - Bruno Mars has soared to fame from struggling songwriter to international superstar. Having performed at the 2014 Super Bowl halftime show alongside the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mars has cemented his status as a global icon. Mars began his journey at a young age, performing at various musical venues in his hometown of Honolulu, Hawaii. Mars has four Grammy Awards from 20 nominations. He is nominated this year for Album of the Year as a producer on Adele's 25.

Kurt & Courtney (2 hr) - Thursday, February 9 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - Beginning as an observation of the music of Grammy winner Kurt Cobain and his Seattle/Portland contemporaries, Kurt & Courtney takes a different turn when Courtney Love intervenes.

Amy Winehouse: A Final Goodbye (1 hr) - Friday, February 10 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00 am PT - A Final Goodbye is an intimate look into the life and times of Grammy winner Amy Winehouse from her rise to pop superstardom to the inner demons that inspired her work and eventually caused her untimely death.

Kanye West: Outspoken (1 hr) - Saturday, February 11 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - Kanye West is ranked 8th in the Grammy Award records for most wins and 6th for most won by a male artist. He is also the 5th most-nominated artist.

He eventually persuaded Jay Z to sign him to his label as a rapper. West is nominated for eight Grammy awards this year.

Adele: Homecoming (1 hr) - Sunday, February 12 at 12:00pm ET / 9:00am PT - After five years since the release of her last album, 10-time Grammy winner Adele is back!
