A Brief History Of House & Black Canadian Music & Influence (Guest: @TROYPodcast)

Published on: 24th June, 2022

Drake’s newest release, “Honestly, Nevermind,” has sparked many reactions, but none as interesting as the question of the origins of House music which are rooted in Black gay clubs and with Black gay DJs. Continuing our #Pride2022 discussions, we’re going to briefly explore the history of House, and how we may have lost touch with this history.

Special guests, Christina and Miguel, from the They Reminisce Over You podcast will be joining us to talk to us about their show, and why folks should be tuning in. They’ll be sticking around for our discussion about Black Canadian musicians who we love and have been influential.

About They Reminisce Over You:

We celebrate & honor our favorite music, movies & TV that we've enjoyed over the years. One episode we're talking about the greatness of Regina King, and the next show we're talking about the '95 Source Awards.
