From groundbreaking veterans to this generation’s game-changing gems, NPR is set to shine a spotlight on some very recognizable female faces in Black music over the course of 9 eagerly anticipated ‘Tiny Desk’ concerts designed to “give women their flowers” (which inspired the artwork seen in the announcement above).

Kicked off by Nigerian chart-topper Tems, the other 8 acts are Flo Milli, Tierra Whack, Kierra Sheard, Lakecia Benjamin, Meshell Ndegeocello, Brittney Spencer, SWV, and Queen of Funk Chaka Khan.

“This Black Music Month, we’re giving the ladies their flowers!,” said Bobby Carter, host and series producer. “We’re releasing nine Tiny Desk concerts from Black women who’ve paved the way for what we hear today in Black music and others who are carving out their own paths. All of them are queens in their own right who represent a beautiful array of genres, generations and walks of life.”
