And yes… we’ll also be celebrating DJ Beverly Bond’s birthday.

Beverly Bond is an award-winning television producer, best-selling author, celebrity DJ, and the visionary founder and CEO of the global women’s empowerment brand BLACK GIRLS ROCK!®. Bond has earned four NAACP Image Awards (with ten nominations), three Gracie Awards, four Root 100 honors, and a spot on EBONY’s Power 100 list as one of the most influential Black people in America.

A skilled and highly sought-after DJ, Bond has spun for legends including Prince, Jay-Z, Erykah Badu, Michael Jordan, President Barack Obama, and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as for premier events like New York Fashion Week, the U.S. Open, MTV’s New Year’s Eve, the White House, and the Kennedy Center.

Her best-selling book, BLACK GIRLS ROCK!: Owning Our Magic, Rocking Our Truth (Simon & Schuster), features over 40 trailblazing women—including Michelle Obama, Rihanna, Angela Davis, and Beyoncé. In 2023, Bond launched the BLACK GIRLS ROCK!® Film Festival, an expansion of the brand’s mission to amplify the voices of Black women in cinema and celebrate visionary women filmmakers. In 2023, she also introduced BLACK GIRLS BOND, a digital media platform focused on beauty, wellness, and culture, now part of the SHE Media Collective.

In addition to her media and entertainment ventures, Bond leads a thriving nonprofit arm of BLACK GIRLS ROCK! that has mentored over 5,000 girls through transformative leadership programs and educational enrichment over the past decade.

Bond’s impact has been honored with numerous civic recognitions, including the Key to the City and Beverly Bond Day in Rochester, NY, and BLACK GIRLS ROCK! Day in Washington, D.C. As she continues to expand her creative footprint, Bond is currently in development on Tables Turn, a prestige scripted drama exploring mastery, music, identity, and love, set in early 2000s New York.
