Genre categories, ‘related artists’ & the narratives around music rarely do justice to the individuals & communities pushing musical movements forward.
Many music institutions are taking much-needed & long-awaited introspection into how artists are under-served by the industry and how Black artists’ huge contributions to music are downplayed, sidelined or exploited at their expense.
In each feature, Black creators use the Mixcloud platform to shape the narrative around their sound, sharing their perspectives through a 1hr audio piece & interview on their communities, influences, inspirations and vision.
