Six Black undergraduate students or recent graduates will be offered a three-month paid summer internship in a number of music business departments, including finance, technology development and marketing. The deadline for candidate applications is June 8. Each recipient will be paired with an established music industry executive to serve as their personal mentor throughout the program. The participating executives include Kathryn Frazier, CEO at 10Q Management; andCommenting on the organization’s commitment to mentiorship programs, BMAC’s Co-Founder/Chair Willie “Prophet” Stiggers, adds, “BMAC’s ‘Black Music Executives are The Future’ Mentorship/Internship program provides six current HBCU students with industry insights and leaders.
He continues, “Until there is a level playing field, BMAC and Audiomack team will activate, agitate, and innovate to ensure accountability and establish equitable pathways to opportunities, access, and success. Although some have gone quiet after loudly committing to the cause of racial justice, BMAC remains steadfast and true to our commitment to repair and build a more equitable and representative music industry.
“Representation is a priority for our team,” said Jason Johnson, senior VP of marketing and brand strategy at Audiomack. “We remain committed to providing Black students and graduates with the real-world experience and opportunities to jumpstart their careers and pursue their passions in the music industry. We have a responsibility as leaders to pay it forward, open doors for the next generation of young, Black talented leaders and level the corporate playing field.
