*DISCLAIMER* This is an episode from my former show What’s the Moooove that focused on Black music history. Once upon a time I had two radio shows here on BFF.fm but as a Virgo tends to do, I was stretching myself thin. I have since decided to combine both shows so that you the listener can get aaaaalll the musical black history you can get. Enjoy this throwback for the archives, I hope you learn something new :)
