The Culture Seat is a reimagined media platform created by journalist and storyteller Emani Bell, dedicated to meaningful conversations with the voices shaping today’s music, entertainment, and culture.
After founding Everything Hip Hop Daily and building a respected presence in digital media through interviews, editorial coverage, and red carpet reporting, Emani recognized the need for a deeper, more intentional space — one that goes beyond headlines and trends. The Culture Seat was born from that vision.
With years of experience interviewing artists, creatives, and industry leaders, Emani brings authenticity, curiosity, and cultural insight to every conversation. Her approach centers the human story behind the art — exploring purpose, growth, challenges, and the moments that define success both on and off the stage.
The Culture Seat is where culture is discussed with intention, honesty, and respect — offering artists and changemakers a place to be seen, heard, and understood.
