LOS ANGELES, March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In bold defiance of convention and a powerful tribute to the impact of the Black community, artist and rapper Griot B, also the founder of School Yard Rap – which teaches true history to children through music written by Griot B – announces his Moor than a Month album to extend the celebration of Black history beyond February, and more importantly, beyond the confines of current educational curriculum.
Key Points:
- Moor Than a Month marks Griot B's ninth rap album to date and is dedicated to younger generations to empower them and celebrate Black heritage through music in a way they have never heard before.
- "A major motivating factor behind this album is the fact that Black history is US history, and without Black people, we wouldn't have US history.
- A month is important and appreciated, but just like one album could not contain all of the amazing contributions and stories of the African Americans, neither can one month," says Griot B.
- Griot B himself is a testament to being a modern-day griot – a storyteller who bridges generations through the power of narrative and music.
