Black music is gold ✨

Mined, refined, and shared with the world - yet its true value, especially in the UK, has long gone unmeasured. From genre-defining sounds like grime, UK garage, and drum & bass to global stars breaking boundaries, Black British music continues to shape culture and drive real economic impact.

This new research shifts the focus to the numbers - highlighting the commercial power behind the culture. Because recognition isn’t just about influence, it’s about investment, opportunity, and giving artists the credit they truly deserve.

This is just the beginning. A step towards deeper understanding, stronger collaboration, and a future where Black music is valued as highly as it should be.

Honouring the pioneers. Investing in the next generation. 🖤

🌍 From London to Cartagena – Building Global Creative Connections

We’re proud to share a major milestone in our international work as Papayebrass ft. Ahnansé (STEAM DOWN) performed at Mercado Cultural del Caribe 2025 in Cartagena, Colombia, to an audience of around 400 people.

This project marked an important step in strengthening international links between young creatives and the global music industry, bringing together artists, festival promoters and cultural leaders from across borders.

Our Founder and Executive Director, Wozzy Brewster OBE, FRSA, alongside Consuelo, Founder of CA MUSICA, spent time networking with festival promoters and industry partners, helping to open new pathways for collaboration on the global stage. Wozzy also shared valuable insights during a panel discussion delivered in Spanish - a powerful moment of knowledge exchange and accessibility.

With support from The British Council, this collaboration reflects a true cultural exchange: Papayebrass first brought their energy to London, and now Ahnansé has brought theirs to Colombia.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this project possible. More behind-the-scenes content coming soon from this unforgettable experience.💜
