The ladies discuss senior Black women in music, dating someone’s ex, Kanye’s mental health & if names determine success.
The ladies discuss the recent #SeatAtTheTable report exposing the absence of Black women in senior and board level positions within the UK’s music trade bodies, Drake shooting his shot with Maya Jama and whether it’s ever okay to date someone you know’s ex partner, the media’s responsibility towards mental health and whether Kanye is serious about being president or seriously unwell, and whether the name you’re given affects your chances of success in life.

Each week join Anissa, Linda E, Luanda Yasmin and Sophie Hannah, four smart, curious and opinionated highly-melanated women, as they discuss everything from current affairs to pop culture, and everything in between. No subject is off limits for these ladies, especially when it comes to issues affecting British communities of colour. Get ready to laugh, learn and liberate your mind, because if there’s one thing you can guarantee, it’s that the Ethnically Speaking ladies will be giving it to you straight!
