7 Bible Verses You Should Know for Black Music Month
Black Music Month honors the profound legacy and global influence of Black musicians, composers, and vocalists across generations.
From the spirituals sung in slavery to gospel, jazz, blues, soul, R&B, and hip-hop, Black music has always been a powerful force of faith, freedom, storytelling, and survival.
At its core, Black music is deeply spiritual — born from struggle, rooted in hope, and lifted through praise. As we reflect during this month, we remember how songs have carried our stories, built our communities, and expressed our unshakable belief in God.
These scriptures celebrate the spirit of music, the power of worship, and the role of song in our collective journey.
