The series will kick off on TUESDAY OCTOBER 13th with the video version on the LIVING LEGENDS FOUNDATION INC. YOUTUBE CHANNEL and the audio version can be heard on APPLE MUSIC, SPOTIFY, GOOGLE MUSIC, AMAZON MUSIC, SOUNDCLOUD, and other podcast platforms.
The interviewed based series will be hosted by LA-based music and lifestyle journalists BILLY JOHNSON Jr. and MONIQUE KELLEY. New episodes will be released every week on TUESDAY, traditionally known in contemporary music and radio as “music day.”
MUSIC DAY Co-Exec. Producer JACKIE RHINEHART said, MUSIC DAY is a conversation about the making and marketing of Black music of all genres worldwide. With a panel composed of legendary artists, music executives, and singular new talents, MUSIC DAY hosts invite listeners and viewers to hear from execs who’ve been in the game long enough to be impervious to critics and artists dope enough to be immune to the hype.”
LLF Chairman DAVID LINTON added, "As we approach our 30th anniversary with the launch of MUSIC DAY, we're tapping into the legacy of the organization as an integral part of the Black Music Industry and our ongoing mission to educate and inform new generations."
In addition to RHINEHART, the other co-exec. producers of MUSIC DAY are industry veterans MARK HILL, KEN JOHNSON, and PAT SHIELDS. The associate producers are SHANNON HENDERSON, SHELIA ELDRIDGE, TONY WINGER, VIVIAN SCOTT CHEW, and VARNELL JOHNSON.
