Summary

Happy Juneteenth, Richies! To celebrate this important day, we’re propping up just a few of our favorite Black celebrities who’ve been killing it this year. Like Usher’s spectacular Super Bowl halftime show, which was full of surprise guest performers. Then there’s Beyoncé, who crossed country music boundaries with her smash album, “Cowboy Carter.” Plus, we’re talking about another badass queen - FKA Twigs - and how she deftly handled the backlash surrounding her controversial Calvin Klein ad. We love any opportunity to celebrate Black artists on Juneteenth or any day.
