(Black PR Wire) WASHINGTON, DC – In celebration of Black Music Month, the Mocha Podcasts Network (MPN) is proud to announce the premiere of the National Museum of African American Music (NMAAM) ‘STATE OF BLACK MUSIC’ podcast on the ever-growing and NAACP Image Award-winning network.

The STATE OF BLACK MUSIC podcast is hosted by Music Industry vets Phil Thornton, award-winning producers Claude Kelly, Chuck Harmony, and Tamone Bacon. It will launch concurrently with the NMAAM’s Black Music Month Celebration Summit June 16 – 19.  The Annual Black Music Month Summit kicks off June 16 with the State of Black Music Summit, community day, and culminates with a Juneteenth block party on June 19.

From hilarious to informative, the STATE OF BLACK MUSIC podcast is a  seat at the table with industry vets  in the entertainment industry. “Our goal is to continue to shine a light on Black musicians and creators and their impact on American culture. We’re honored to collaborate with Mocha Podcasts Network and NMAAM to continue our mission,” says the hosts.

 Each episode shares intimate conversations with celebrity guests and music influencers to debate the impact of Black music on today’s culture. The first episodes published for Black Music Month in June will feature hit singers Tamar Braxton and Tevin Campbell.
