Man, I haven’t heard some of those joints like “Two Occasions” in YEARS. I feel sorry for my kids because what passes for “soul” these days is both derivative and pale imitations. There ain’t no new Marvin Gaye, Isley Brothers, Isaac Hayes, or Donny Hathways coming along. Makes me glad I grew up when I did.
Yeah, I tell my girl and my peers I rarely even listen to the new artists, well the more popular ones. There are a few good acts out, most you come across by chance. Music just ins’t music now anyway
