THE BLACK EXCELLENCE BAND 

is a Hip Hop Quartet from Oakland, Ca consisting of group members: CLEAN (Hip Hop Artist) JAYLA (Drummer) ASHLEY (Keyboard Player) and KEVIN (Violinist). The music they perform is deeply centered around themes of freedom, love, independence, social justice, black pride and liberation. As a group they have played close to100 shows, across three tours since 2018. The purpose of their music is not only to provide entertainment and a good time to the audience, but to also cause their listeners to become more aware of world topics and to provide new perspectives and ideas through the stories told in each song. The band is now more than ever dedicated to using their platform and influence to create a better world through not only music but also by collaborating with other groups and organizations who continue to fight for human rights and social justice.Through the Power 100 we plan to fight these battles with music, community activism and finances. If you want to help make a change but don't know where to start, start with us. Become a member of The Power 100 or become an ally with your organization and feel the strength of a small community built around impact and purpose and be apart of changing the world!

DANIELLE HELENA

Oakland-based singer/songwriter Danielle Helena has been creating music and performing all her life. As a child of 90's R&B and her parents' "oldies" collection, her sound is the lovechild of many genres--the heart of it is soul, and there is always a rhythm with an essence of blues. She tries to not let the idea of genre influence her writing, but the song structure often follows a pop music format. Some tunes are reminiscent of Dionne Farris or Des'ree, but she would tell you her favorites are Sade and Amel Larrieux. Tracks from her debut album, Like Sunrise (2016), have over 500,000 streams and 39,000 downloads worldwide, and she has created a community of supporters by selling homemade products at shows and online to raise money for creating and recording. After a recent Humans of New York feature, she now has a beautiful community of over 20,000 followers on Instagram, and is currently gearing up to record her next EP with her band. 

“American singer Danielle Helena breathes life into her music, spreading the love with her sultry voice and pouring her heart & soul into her beautiful RnB sound. ”
