If one generation found Nashville inhospitable to their hip-hop and R&amp;B ambitions, what about the next wave of artists? And what role could Lovenoise play for them? After 20 years of mounting influence for the company, the final chapter of “Making Noise” examines the work that is still to come.

2023 was the 20th anniversary for Lovenoise, the Black-owned, Nashville-based concert promoter that has radically altered the city’s live landscape. Lovenoise has expanded opportunities for Black music makers doing contemporary, original music in Nashville, especially hip-hop and R&amp;B, and served multiple generations of the city’s previously underserved audiences.

This four-part narrative series tells the story of Lovenoise: its past, present and plans for the future.
