Danyel was the first Black woman editor of Billboard. The two discuss Danyel’s turbulent and at times abusive upbringing, the Black women in music such as Whitney Houston, Lizzo, Beyonce and Ella Fitzgerald who deserve flowers and how women in the music industry still have to navigate a male dominated industry.
