It is time to give credit where credit is due: Black musicians played a major role in developing the sound and style of country music. From our instruments to our Southern gospel hymns, the genre began with us. Over the years, our contributions have been minimized, but that’s no longer the case. We’re acknowledging our history and the legends who shaped the genre and celebrating the renaissance of Black country music artists who are taking over the charts and the internet. This month on #AmericaInBlackBET we’re talking all things Black country music. Catch the new episode tonight 10/9c on #BET and don’t miss Tanner Adell and Shaboozey’s performances at the #BETAwards on Sun, June 30th 8/7c. #BlackMusicMonth
