what is bamx?
This Is Bigger Than a Week.
bamX powers Black Music Week — a citywide experience built to celebrate legacy, elevate new voices, and connect culture to opportunity.
Leading into the month of June, Atlanta becomes the global stage for Black American Music and creative influence.
Built on Five Pillars
The Black Music Week foundation stands on five core values.
1
Music & The Arts
honoring the architects and amplifying what’s next.
2
Culture & Community
because sustainable culture requires healthy people.
3
Education & Mentorship
mentorship and pathways into the creative industries.
4
Technology & Innovation
exploring the future of sound, streaming, and innovation.
5
Economics, Business & Wellness
real conversations about ownership, opportunity, and growth.
Why Atlanta?
Because as an international city, the world already looks here.
For decades, Atlanta has impacted global travel & sound — from the airport to studios to stages to boardrooms. Black music week gathers that influence into one powerful moment & time.
When Atlanta moves, culture moves.
When culture moves, the world moves.
Welcome to Atlanta.
What Does That Mean for You?
Panels that spark ideas.
Awards that honor legacy.
Showcases that spotlight rising talent.
Moments that feel bigger than the city itself.
This is where conversations turn into collaborations.
America’s Original Music.
Black American Music is not a genre — it is the Art-form at the foundation of America’s Original Music.
Born in the South — from spirituals to blues to Jazz, Soul, Rock-n-Roll, Funk, & Hip-Hop — it became the Mothership for all popular music genres
From Harlem to Detroit to the birth of atlanta. The lineage is clear. What started in fields, churches, juke joints, speakeasy’s & neighborhoods became America’s most powerful cultural export.
Black Music Week honors that history — and asks what comes next.
