If you were to walk into the Carl Maxey Center on any given day, it would most likely sound like this. This playlist was made with love, and with the intention of highlighting our great Black artists & icons throughout the years. There is something for everybody here. From any era.  

Play this playlist on shuffle. The whole family can jam to it. 

We hope it makes you dance. We hope it takes you back. We hope you discover something new. 

Black history isn’t just something we look back on — it’s something we live every day.

These songs carry stories of struggle and joy, love and creativity, resilience and celebration. They are the soundtrack of where we've been and where we're going.

From soul to hip-hop, gospel to funk, old school to right now — this music lives in our homes, our memories, and our community.

This is our history.
This is our culture.
This is our sound.
