Watch: How did Black women build pop? Danyel Smith breaks it down on Music Book Club

The former Billboard and Vibe editor joined us for a hilarious and insightful talk.

Former Billboard and Vibe editor Danyel Smith (who used to write for the Bay Guardian!) joined us on Music Book Club to talk about how she put a very personal spin on her history of Black women in pop, Shine Bright. It was an insightful and often hilarious talk that can’t be missed. Up next: Join us February 21 at noon PST on Zoom for house music legend DJ Disciple talking about his incredible The Beat, the Scene, the Sound: A DJ’s Journey through the Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of House Music in New York City. See previous Music Book Club episodes here.

48 Hills welcomes comments in the form of letters to the editor, which you can submit here. We also invite you to join the conversation on our Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
