iHeartMedia has unveiled the full lineup for the second edition of its Living Black! event.
Fans tuning in this year will be able to experience performances by Big Sean, Moneybagg Yo, H.E.R., Ari Lennox, and more. The event, powered by AT&T, will be broadcast live from Los Angeles and a number of Black-owned businesses nationwide via TikTok (as well as via the iHeartMedia app and select stations) starting at 8:00 p.m. ET on Feb. 23.
In a statement, Doc Wynter—iHeartMedia’s President of Hip-Hop and R&B Programming—said the team was “thrilled to once again honor Black History Month and Black culture through on-going and informative discussions about race and some very special performances.”
Confirmed to also be making special appearances during the Rikki Hughes-produced event are J. Cole, Saweetie, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Bas, and more. Meanwhile, fans—per a press release—can also expect what’s being billed as a “special moment” from “Rumors” artist Lizzo.
“This platform connects the community, including members of AT&T’s Dream in Black Future Makers, together to amplify, celebrate and elevate Black voices,” Angela Burgin, Director of Marketing and Special Experiences at AT&T, said.
Following its initial TikTok streaming premiere on Feb. 23, the full event will be available on the official iHeartRadio YouTube and Facebook pages starting Feb. 24 at 8:00 p.m. ET. For more on the larger Living Black! and Dream in Black initiatives, click here and here, respectively.
