Welcome to Season 3 of your Black Girl Songbook. Author, journalist, and host Danyel Smith is back with another season dedicated to celebrating the genius of Black women in music. We’re kicking this season off by celebrating Aretha Franklin, Donna Summer, the soundtrack for Waiting to Exhale, and Deniece Williams. We’ll also be getting into Danyel’s new book, Shine Bright: A Very Personal History of Black Women in Pop. New episodes of Black Girl Songbook drop every Wednesday.
