Founded in 1978 by the visionary Charles "Chuck" Johnson, Soul Beat Network emerged as California's first African American television network dedicated to serving the vibrant African American community of Oakland, CA. With 24-hour programming that included R&B, rap, gospel entertainment, lifestyle shows, religious services, local and national news, political discussions, relationship advice, and more, Soul Beat quickly became a cultural cornerstone.
Throughout its early years, Soul Beat Network was a launching pad for numerous artists, personalities, and comedians who would go on to achieve great success. Despite its closure in 2003, the legacy of Soul Beat endured in the hearts and memories of its dedicated audience.
In the digital age, Soul Beat Network has been revitalized by Charles "Chuck" Johnson (no relation to the original founder) and is committed to recapturing the magic of its original format. Recognizing that today's viewers often prefer streaming services over traditional television, Soul Beat Network has adapted to meet contemporary demands while striving to return to television.
