Music Genre: R&B

How Rhythm and Blues Became the Heartbeat of Contemporary Sound In the ever-evolving landscape of music, where genres rise and fall like the tides, one thing remains constant: the enduring power of rhythm and blues, better known as R&B. This genre, with its roots deeply entrenched in the African American experience, has consistently reinvented itself to remain at the forefront of contemporary…

Signed, Sealed & Delivered (1970), Where I’m Coming From (1971), Stevie Wonder

Early Stevie Wonder still had much of the sentimental grandeur, emotional sincerity and sense of compositional accomplishment as his later, more celebrated works – though all that was intermixed with a greater number of commercial cuts. Of all his early works – Stevie released over 13 studio albums before Music of My Mind – I like Signed, Sealed & Delivered and Where I’m Coming From the best.

Pick(s): ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours’, ‘If You Really Love Me’

either I am weirdly and severely lacking in the imagination department or everyone who makes/reblogs those "when every song is about the Fictional Character/OC" posts listens to way different music than I do. I mean, I think I'm pretty imaginative. but even I cannot imagine The Character to a song like *shuffles* Obscene as Cancer by Anaal Nathrakh

even if I weed out all the metal (I think it's reasonable to assume that yeah, most of the people on those posts aren't metalheads, or at least are more the Sleep Token kind of metalhead as opposed to the Cattle Decapitation kind) I'm left with a lot of songs that are either just About Something Very Specific And Therefore Not Widely Applicable (like modern politics or some specific relationship dynamic or a historical event or the plot of a concept album or well you get the picture) or have lyrics I just cannot make any sense of. although, I guess, if the lyrics don't make sense you have full rein to somehow make those lyrics into something about The Character. I guess that's where the imagination comes in, right

my point is any time I listen to my playlist I think about those posts because it takes me being like 15 tracks in before I get to a single song that I can do the "this is about The Character now" thing with and sometimes that annoys the fuck out of me because I want to play, too >:(

does anyone have that post about how the things that annoy us about a piece of technology become the things we are nostalgic about when that technology becomes obsolete? (i can't remember any of the examples, but the first thing that comes to my mind is the dial-up noise or like, VHS static? idk?) i might want to reference it in a class discussion lol

Melodi (Sounds Of Home) - Letta Mbulu ‎(Letta, 1970)

[disco-cola]

umm omg lady love by thee sacred souls?? heard it and if you had asked me I would’ve betted for sure that it’s from the 60s or 70s at most because of the way it sounds like also the recording itself but it’s A NEW SONG (well released 2 years ago to me is actually brand new) but it’s seriously so good I wish music like this would actually top the charts again 😩
