Black History Month 2025 Features

Black History Month music feature image
WEXT

February is Black History Month. Each day through the month this year, we are featuring music from select artists. Each hour, we will feature music from the artists we've chosen. Some of the days won't be just one artist. We've decided to make Saturdays into Stax Saturdays, and Mondays into Motown Mondays.

The only exception will be President's Day. On that day, we will feature a full day of music to celebrate Black History Month.
