Black Music Month Spotlight: What Was the First Record, Tape, or CD You Bought With Your Own Money?

This week, The MPN Network and The Ummah Creative Group are taking it back to the moment we made our first real investment in music.

Was it a classic album? A one-hit wonder? Something you had to hide from your parents?

That first purchase was more than a transaction — it was a statement of who you were and what you loved.

So let’s hear it! Drop your answer in the comments:

What was the album?

Where’d you get it?

How did it make you feel walking out with your music?

We’re celebrating Black Music Month by highlighting the memories that shaped our soundtracks and yours.

Let’s share, connect, and keep the music legacy alive!
