Reposted from @nytimes These five Black singer-songwriters — Mickey Guyton, Reyna Roberts, Rissi Palmer, Brittney Spencer and Miko Marks — are carving out their own path in country music. They represent several generations and hail from different regions of the United States, but they share a common dream: making a living in country music like the women who inspired them, a list that includes Loretta Lynn and the Chicks. Black artists were foundational to the roots of country music, but the industry has been famously inhospitable to Black performers. Outside of the success of Charley Pride, a giant of the genre who died in December from Covid-19, and the harmonica ace DeFord Bailey, there were few other high-profile Black performers in Nashville until Darius Rucker of Hootie & the Blowfish pivoted to country music in 2008. More recently, Jimmie Allen and Kane Brown have made inroads with a radio-friendly sound. In the past decade, women were increasingly pushed to the genre’s margins as the heavily male bro-country aesthetic dominated. And above all, these artists are determined to be true to themselves and support one another: “These white men at these record labels, they’re not going to do it for us,” Guyton said. “These white men at these radio stations, they’re not going to do it for us. But Black women will do it for each other, and that is literally the only way.” Tap the link in our bio to read the conversations with them.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I will be in my phone not looking at social media. BUT, catching up on my Black History. Right now, I am reading about the honorable and courageous legends Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. These two unforgettable men were the cofounders of The Black Panther party. Without them, we wouldn’t have that part of history to look back on and celebrate. So, brothas and sistas keep fighting. Keep raising your voices. As said by the late Malcolm X himself, “freedom by any means necessary.”

from @ericaleshai - #AfroChat 🗣 NFL player #JahleeAddae toasts to having more light skinned children with his fiancée. Someone who would try to run away from their Blackness is clearly someone who doesn’t know how beautiful it is. Who is the Original man? It is Black history month, isn’t it? Well a history lesson may be apropos. Because the deeper you go into history, the blacker it gets.
