As Black History comes to a close, Spotify took the whole month to create a ‘Black History is Now’ hub where a collection of playlists and podcasts are curated to honor the legacy and influence of Black musicians.

For this week, a playlist curation called Saturday Stream highlights playlists that are curated by a few high-profile names.
