Rissi Palmer has lived and breathed country music her whole life. But as someone who knows the genre better than anyone, she’s decided that enough is enough: "It’s time for country music to know where the f**k it came from," she says. We couldn’t agree more. On her Apple Music Country radio show Color Me Country, the singer-songwriter brings to the forefront the Black, Indigenous, and Latinx histories of country music that for too long have lived outside the spotlight and off mainstream airwaves. Listen in as Rissi has riveting, funny, and necessary conversations with country music's most vital and underrepresented voices.

“All my life, the people close to me have had an immense impact on the music I create,” Montreal singer-songwriter Charlotte Cardin tells Apple Music. “Relationships influence the heart and soul poured into each song, and in turn, the process of creating an album can strain or strengthen these bonds. That back and forth has always fascinated me, led me to explore deeper.” Cardin’s latest album, 99 Nights, is the embodiment of those relationships she holds dear. “It's an intimate diary, the culmination of countless conversations, shared silences, laughter, and tears over 99 metaphorical nights of creation,” she says. For her Apple Music 1 program 99 Nights Radio With Charlotte Cardin, she shares stories of the people and the music that have shaped who she is—from her parents and collaborators to the friends and romantic partners who’ve left an indelible mark on the art she’s been making for a decade. “As we go along, you'll get a glimpse into this transformative process, the music it birthed, and the relationships it reshaped,” she adds. “So buckle up, take a deep breath, and delve into the melody of my life's connections. Welcome to 99 Nights.”

The host of her namesake show as well as R&B Now, Nadeska Alexis brings a one-of-a-kind, truly global and diverse perspective to music and culture. Although she proudly reps New York City, she was born in Grenada to a huge family and moved to Brooklyn when she was 11, which is where her musical education blossomed. “Living in Grenada for the first few years of my life meant that reggae and soca music were the sounds that I naturally heard all around me—those sounds still very much feel like home to me,” she says. “But the earliest musical memory that sticks in my mind was spending time with my cousins after school and watching hip-hop and R&B videos. I was a little too young to fully understand what I was seeing, but it made an impression, and when I moved to the States I became fully immersed in that culture. It gave me a unique musical education.” Nadeska—who made her name as a music journalist and cohosted Complex’s breakout hit video series Everyday Struggle—brings that unique viewpoint to everything she does. “My show is crafted from the perspective of a young Black woman who’s experienced many different cultures growing up; that has given me an appreciation for multiple genres and how often they overlap,” she says. “My goal is always to leave listeners with something new that feels familiar at the same time." Hear her on The Nadeska Show every Friday at 7 am LA, 10 am NY, and 3 pm London on Apple Music 1, plus Fridays at 8 am LA, 11 am NY, and 4 pm London on R&B Now Radio.

There are few better ways to get to know someone than rifling through their record bins. On his new Apple Music Country show The Broken Jukebox Society, veteran musician and television personality Nick Hoffman does just that, digging through the eclectic, often surprising musical influences of some of today’s most popular artists. “I'm into what makes artists tick,” Hoffman tells Apple Music. “‘Why'd you write that song, you know? How'd you get to where you're at? The style that you have as an artist, how did you get there?’ I'm fascinated by the journey. So this show is all about nostalgia. It's less about the songs you have on the radio right now and it's more about how you got to them, how you got here.” As Hoffman puts it, The Broken Jukebox Society shines a spotlight on the “soundtracks of artists’ lives, taking the artist down the path of reliving the songs that made them who they are.” Country music is the show’s focus, but Hoffman’s far-reaching conversations with artists like Jordan Davis and Dustin Lynch often reach unexpected territory, too, like the influence of ’90s pop stars or early family memories of listening to classic rock artists like Tom Petty. “It’s super lighthearted, super fun, and there’s no rules,” Hoffman says. “Yeah, we focus on ’80s, ’90s, and 2000s country, for the most part, but there's no rules. It reveals a side of the artist that you wouldn't normally see.” Hoffman is a true multi-hyphenate, playing fiddle for artists like Kenny Chesney and Keith Urban, releasing music as a singer-songwriter and with country band The Farm, hosting the Outdoor Channel television series Nick’s Wild Ride, and so much more. His kaleidoscopic perspective on music and pop culture makes him the perfect tour guide for a meandering trip down musical memory lane. “Everybody has a soundtrack to their lives,” Hoffman says. “What’s yours?”
