Famous musicians posters (Songwriters #5 Black History)

Decorate your classroom with these 10 fun and colorful posters of famous singer songwriters featuring: Mahalia Jackson, Robert Johnson, Lizzo, The Notorious BIG, Ma Rainey, Marvin Gaye, Isaac Hayes, Barry White, Otis Redding and Janet Jackson.

This collection features hip hop, blues, gospel, soul, jazz, and pop songwriters. Each poster features an illustration of the songwriter holding a record with their name, a famous song they wrote and the genre of their music. One variation includes QR codes which link to the famous song on YouTube. The designs are clean, modern and kid-friendly. There are two poster sets included: A4 size and Letter size. They can be printed at much larger sizes without loss of quality.

Hip Hop is an important genre that I didn’t want to exclude but the songs may not be appropriate for school. I’ve included versions with and without songs for the hip hop artists so you can choose what’s appropriate for you. The songs in the QR codes are clean versions, but the content may not be appropriate.
