To honor Black History Month, one of my favorite months of the year, I have put together a little list of all my favorite songs by black musical artists. This list is comprised of throw-back nostalgias, songs you never knew the artists had, artists you’ve never heard of, and artists you didn’t even know where black. Let’s play a game; this list counts down to my all-time favorite song – can you guess what it is?
