I also think that this is wht we dont have any current black soul singers that really bring it today. When I like to the old great soul singers they just had something that can't be reproduced.

Raphael Saadiq.
I don't care about an artist's skin colour. There are artists who I consider to be soul singers but I won't even go there because I'm not trying to be stoned. |
I always put him in the neo soul category along with Meshelle N'dgeochello, Erika, Angie Stone the likes. Please share you artist, no stoning from me. |
George Michael  I'm a huge fan.
|
I George Michael. "Father Figure" is one of my fave's. I personally wouldn't call him soul...but he's fantastic. I really love his song "beautiful". There's a remix of it from The Ones, called "Flawless". Amazing. If I find the YT link, I'll post.
|
I bought Patience when it came out because of Amazing. Beautiful album
I can't wait for his next album. I think it's either going to be very, very good or the life will be sucked out of him and it will be terrible. I strongly suspect that he has a House in Virginia

Noooo!! If there can only be one thing appreciated about Country, those singers can actually SING! I'm not sure how Taylor Swift fell through the cracks
