About this image

Who Killed Jazz is the viral award-winning documentary by director Ben Makinen & Bmakin Film ltd. This film uncovers the financial forces, industry gatekeeping, and unequal power structures that have kept generations of jazz musicians underpaid while the business around them grows richer. Who really profits from jazz? Now viewed over 260,000 times, the documentary continues to ignite conversations about music, money, exploitation, and artistic legacy. Special Thanks to media rights advocacy initiative Red Road Legal for their continued support. Photo by Ben Makinen of Veronique in Bali.
