Mellow Monday: Songs of Unity, Hope & Purpose
Tonight on Classix at Nite with Donna, we paused, reflected, and honored the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. through music that has always been part of the movement.
This Mellow Monday playlist was built around songs of unity, peace, love, and purpose—music that uplifts without weighing the heart down.
Dr. King believed deeply in the power of love, service, and collective responsibility. These songs echo that belief, reminding us that music has always helped carry the message forward.
