The Black Music Collective is an advisory group of music industry leaders who will speak openly about new and emerging opportunities in Black music and identify ways to drive Black representation. It is a hub for power players in Black music, across all genres, all under the GRAMMY roof, bringing together creators and business leaders to set unified goals, align on a shared agenda and build community.
The Black Music Collective is comprised of two highly esteemed groups: The Honorary Chairs and Leadership Council. The Honorary Chairs and Leadership Council will partner to drive impact and lasting change at the Recording Academy and in the industry at-large. Their leadership and dedication to the advancement of Black music is invaluable to the success of the BMC.
