ASCAP TAKES TO INSTAGRAM FOR BHM

ASCAP will celebrate Black History Month with an interactive social-media campaign that starts Tuesday on the PRO’s Instagram pages. It goes live at noon PT/3pm ET.

Daily posts with facts, photos and reels will commemorate the impact of Black artists, songwriters and composers at @ASCAP and @ASCAPUrban.

The campaign will kick off with a video introduction from songwriter/artist/producer/actor Tia P. and historian/singer/songwriter/producer TL Cross and continue with weekly videos from one of the hosts. Viewers can tune in, test their knowledge and learn more about how ASCAP members have helped shape Black history.

Additionally, the org will present an Instagram Live conversation with trumpeter Keyon Harrold discussing his work, collaborations with artists such as Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Maxwell and reflecting on meaningful moments in Black history.
