Why BBM?
Imagine a portal that caters only for the Black British Musicians, There successes, history and achievements. Black musicians within the realms of the UK have struggled over the years to be recognised in the popular UK music industry. Take Soul II Soul, a fantastic band that had to get noticed by the USA audience before getting wholly accepted by the British music industry.
The examples could go on but the purpose of our existence is not to discriminate but to give the black British musicians the support they need to build and take ownership of their creations within the UK. For too long the UK music industry has been biased towards the development of black British musicians. Our sole purpose is to bring about change to this problem.
The Purpose
We are unbiased towards popularity or success or locale in the UK. We select and choose musicians based on merit, skill and contribution to the black culture. We aim to bring our viewers history, focus recognition and awareness of what’s going in within the realms of black music in Britain. A specialist portal offering news and focus providing black musicians the opportunity to unify, broadcast, market and advertise their events and venues.
