To expand on the podcast network announcement, it was a non-negotiable for me that black women be put in position to direct all content decisions. So beyond thrilled that the brilliant @Tapperific is leading our efforts to center black women. pic.twitter.com/7nKKhrmzEZ

Congratulated by Jemele Hill in a Twitter post highlighting a Hollywood Reporter article, Christina M. Tapper is the new Head of Content at Spotify's "Unbothered with Jemele Hill.
Hill, a provocative culture critic, journalist and multifaceted creator, will work with longtime rep Evan Dick of Exit 39 and a team of creatives and executives to develop podcasts for The Unbothered Network in collaboration with Spotify.
“The Unbothered Network is more than just a content hub — it’s a space where Black women can hopefully see their full selves,” Hill said in a statement. “There’s so much about the lives of Black women that haven’t been fully explored, and so many of our stories have either been dismissed or overlooked. I’m also proud of this network because it not only centers Black women, but it’s also run by Black women. We can’t empower Black women if we’re not positioning them in leadership roles.”
