Hey lady! You know we couldn’t end June without getting our groove on to celebrate Black Music month! June is the official month for the songs that have enriched our lives in times of sorrow and joy.

Spaces where you can mourn the breakup and relationship, the loss of a loved one, or the loss of self. Black people have used our music to keep us moving forward, overcoming and thriving and that is worthy of celebrating!Listen all the way through for a fun challenge Dr. Dom and Terri have for you and then join us on Instagram and give us your answer.
