In honor of Black Music Month I made a mix acknowledging the profound impact that Black Music has made on me, and on the world.  Some of my favorite influences are on this mix, from that Sweet Soul music, to Rocksteady, Roots and Ska, RnB, Hip Hop, Jazz.  The influence of Black Musicians on modern music far exceeds any other group and almost all modern forms of music were directly started and / or heavily influenced by Black musicians from all over the world.
