The Black artists who changed the sound of music

So much of the music we listen to today is owed to Black artists who created and innovated. June is African American Music Appreciation Month, so we’re taking a listen to musicians, past and present, who have changed the musical landscape. Pat Kiernan speaks with his colleagues Dean Meminger and Cheryl Wills, who have profiled artists to make sure their impact isn’t forgotten.
