The Motown Channel Honors Soul Legends Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, and More

While Black history should be celebrated year-round, Black History Month is an especially important, poignant time to stop and reflect on the pioneers of Black culture and their impact on the world as a whole. In honor of that fact, SiriusXM is paying homage to Berry Gordy’s legendary label with The Motown Channel.

For the month of February, SiriusXM, Pandora, and Stitcher are spotlighting Black artists and personalities who have pioneered music, popular culture, and beyond, transforming Black communities and the world as a whole. Beginning on February 4, hear music channels saluting the music and influence of Aretha Franklin and Miles Davis, plus celebrating the sounds and artists from legendary record label Motown.

The Motown Channel celebrates the iconic record label that generated history-making artists who changed music forever. The channel features music from Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross & The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, The Jackson 5, and more. A special virtual event, celebrating the 60th Anniversary of The Supremes, with founding member the late Mary Wilson, will also be broadcast on the channel.

The Motown Channel is available on the SiriusXM app in the Hip-Hop/R&B category beginning February 4 for 30 days. Soul Town (Ch. 49) becomes The Motown Channel from February 21 through February 27.
