Take a listen to our BHM Playlist!

This collection of music features a mix of timeless classics and modern songs from OGs and upcoming musicians! From the soulful Jazz and Reggae to the infectious Afrobeats, Amapiano, and Afro-punk beats, there is something in the playlist for everyone🎧!

Whether you're feeling happy😋, or getting ready for a night out🙌, this playlist is perfect to set the mood for any occasion- be it some last-minute studying at the library 📚 or just cooking a meal with your flat mates🥣.

You'll discover music from regions such as Ivory Coast, Nigeria, The US, South Africa, Ghana, and Jamaica, reflecting the influence and vastness of Black culture💃.

Our playlist includes generations of musicians from icons like Bob Marley to present-day stars like Damian Marley and YG Marley.

We also encourage you to add your favourite songs from Black artists to the playlist and share the playlist with your friends and flat mates.

Want to celebrate? Join us on Saturday 11 October at the historic Horniman Museum and Gardens for a special photography display showcasing African and Caribbean Community Researchers' family history! 

In the meantime, celebrate Black History Month through music – we hope you enjoy our playlist 🎶
