Black musicians have provided the soundtrack for many significant cultural movements, even if not always recognized for it.   At Sony Music Group, we believe it's crucial to recognize the profound influence of Black contributors and the undeniable Blackness throughout the spectrum of musical expression. This past month we’ve celebrated #BlackMusicMonth by hosting a variety of events and discussions with our employees highlighting the extensive impact Black artists have had across various genres.   #BlackMusicMonth #LifeatSonyMusic   (Note: Reposted with updated branding.)

Absolutely, Black musicians have had a profound impact on the evolution of music across many genres, including jazz, blues, rock, hip-hop, and beyond. African music's recent rise in global recognition is a testament to its rich diversity and cultural significance. Genres like Afrobeat, Afropop, and Amapiano are gaining traction on international stages, leading to greater appreciation and collaboration between African artists and global musicians. This increased visibility is also fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of African cultures worldwide.

We believe that without the contribution of black musicians and black culture, the modern musical landscape would be unrecognisable; barren and bereft of any meaningful substance at all. Black music is all music.
