Breakbeat, which officially launches today (29 September), will produce scripted, non-fiction narrative, news and discussion content, covering a wide range of subjects. It will be available on all major podcast suppliers including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Dave Mays said: “I’ve had a 40-year love affair with Hip-Hop, and over that time, it has grown into the most important cultural force in the world. Podcasting is a fast-growing and influential industry that provides Breakbeat with the opportunity to develop and showcase a collection of distinct voices, perspectives and stories from the Hip-Hop culture. Our vision for Breakbeat is for it to comprehensively serve the global Hip-Hop community with the love, respect and authenticity it so richly deserves. It’s great to be partnering with a powerhouse like DAX to help bring us to market.”

Breakbeat co-founder Kendrick Ashton added: “The compelling stories, nuanced and sophisticated perspectives and inspiring history of Hip-Hop need a platform that unapologetically embraces the beauty, power and importance of the culture. Breakbeat, which will be at the front of the culture, will be that platform.”

Les Hollander, CEO of DAX US, said: “We are proud to bring Breakbeat Media, a premium and authentic Hip-Hop podcast network, to market. With our ability to connect audiences and brands at scale we are able to support Dave Mays and Kendrick Ashton in their vision to create a platform of authentic voices to serve the global Hip-Hop community.” It’s an exciting addition to the DAX podcast portfolio which already includes exclusives with Action Park Media, Evergreen and Sounder and strengthens DAX’s listener base with more diverse content.

DAX will exclusively represent Breakbeat’s content including “Culturati: Conversations with Kierna Mayo,” which explores cultural hot topics from the socio-political to the not-safe-for-work through engaging conversations with an array of important and fascinating thought-leaders, activists and celebrated artists, and the “Don’t Call me White Girl” show, whose host offers her unique brand of insight, advice, and commentary in a weekly audio-visual podcast, as well as “The Wrap It Up Show Starring Funny Marco,” with interviews and interactions with notable guests from the music and entertainment scene in Hip-Hop’s capital city of Atlanta.
