Jelly: A Musical Odyssey

From the Harlem Renaissance to Beyonce and beyond, we explore references to jelly in music that span decades and genres. Along the way, we hear the story of a famous moment in internet history, explore depictions of black women in music, and learn how jelly became an affirmation for LGBTQIA+ identity. For the grand finale, we compose and perform an original song about jelly. Today's sponsors: Go to nationsphotolab.com and use code sporkful15 for 15% off your order.
