Soul music

Soul music is a popular music genre that originated in the United States in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It combines elements of African-American gospel music, rhythm and blues and jazz. Soul music became popular for dancing and listening in the United States; where record labels such as Motown, Atlantic and Stax were influential in the civil rights era. Soul also became popular around the world, directly influencing rock music and the music of Africa.

According to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, soul is "music that arose out of the black experience in America through the transmutation of gospel and rhythm & blues into a form of funky, secular testifying". Catchy rhythms, stressed by handclaps and extemporaneous body moves, are an important feature of soul music. Other characteristics are a call and response between the soloist and the chorus, and an especially tense vocal sound. The style also occasionally uses improvisational additions, twirls and auxiliary sounds. Soul music reflected the African-American identity, it stressed the importance of an African-American culture. The new-found African-American consciousness led to new music, which boasted pride in being black.

Soul music (disambiguation)

Soul music may refer to one of the following:

  • Soul music, a musical genre, closely related to rhythm and blues, which grew out of the African-American gospel and blues traditions during the late 1950s and early 1960s in the United States
  • Soul Music (novel), the title of a Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett
  • Soul Music (TV series), animated TV Series based on the novel by Terry Pratchett
  • Soul Music (album), the title of Dru Hill band member Woody Rock's 2002 gospel album
  • Soul Music (novel)

    Soul Music is the sixteenth Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett, first published in 1994. Like many of Pratchett's novels it introduces an element of modern society into the magical and vaguely late medieval, early modern world of the Discworld, in this case Rock and Roll music and stardom, with nearly disastrous consequences. It also introduces Susan Sto Helit, daughter of Mort and Ysabell and granddaughter of Death.

    Plot summary

    A young harpist, Imp Y Celyn from Llamedos (spelled backwards, "sod 'em all," a tribute to LLareggub in Welsh poet Dylan Thomas' Under Milk Wood), comes to Ankh-Morpork in hopes of becoming famous. Unable to afford the Musicians Guild fees, he and fellow unlicensed musicians Lias Bluestone (a troll percussionist) and Glod Glodsson (a dwarf hornblower) form "The Band with Rocks In," named after Lias' tuned rocks. When Imp's harp is destroyed, he acquires a guitar from a mysterious shop, unaware that it contains the awareness of a primordial music that was responsible for bringing the universe into existence. Imp takes the new name "Buddy," as "Imp Y Celyn" literally means "bud of holly," and Lias starts calling himself "Cliff."

    Soul Music (TV series)

    Soul Music is a seven-part animated television adaptation of the 1994 book of the same name by Terry Pratchett, produced by Channel 4 Television Corporation/Cosgrove Hall Films/ITEL/Ventureworld Films and distributed by Channel 4 Television Corporation (1996) (UK) (TV) & Vision Video (2001) (UK) (DVD). It was first broadcast on 12 May 1997 and released on DVD in 2001 alongside Wyrd Sisters in a box set entitled "Soul Music". The feature-length miniseries was developed by Acorn Media, and directed by Jean Flynn. It was the first film adaptation of an entire Discworld novel (following the Welcome to the Discworld short, which was based on a fragment of the novel Reaper Man). The series soundtrack was also released on CD, but the disc is now out of production. The soundtrack is, however, now available through iTunes. Editz did the title sequences, Flix Facilities did the digital picture editing, and Hullabaloo Studios did the audio post-production.

    -You came into my life
    -I don't have to wonder no more, I can feel it all in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Feel the Burn
    I can see I got a good foundation deep down in my soul
    -Its deep down in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    I feel the need for contemplation deep down in my soul
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Yo, I first took breath in Hemstead, Long Island
    Born in American ancestry from Ireland
    You ain't knowin me, you'd better stop smilin'
    Aint nothin funny once my dummies start whiling
    You talkin loud now all of a sudden it's silent
    Your premonitions say it's about to get violent
    You want permission just to blink your own eyelids
    I got my soldiers, everywhere they go, I win
    No stick moves, aint no cap peeling
    Where I come from real men don't catch feelins
    We don't rhyme about fake jacks or drug dealin
    The shit I drop will leave all your brains on the ceilin'
    Mass appealin, done it since the '80s
    Rock rhymes for my dogs, sing songs for my ladies
    Spend money like crazy, aint got no babies
    If I don't make it in heaven I'll run shit in Hades
    Now I can see I got a good foundation deep down in my soul
    -Its deep down in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    I feel the need for contemplation deep down in my soul
    -It's in my soul
    Soul Music
    And I can feel a dark sensation deep down in my soul
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Soul Music
    Tryin to find an explanation deep down in my soul
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Yo I shit on competition
    Spit on percussion
    Beats are bonecrushin
    One deep I'm bum-rushin
    Guns they get stuck in
    Someone starts buckin
    The jewels that I'm truckin got pimps upchuckin
    You can't hold me down
    You can't hold my hand
    A full grown man with the one God plan
    I represent the colors that never run
    God bless DMC
    God bless Reverend Run
    R.I.P. for the J.M.J.
    Tell Big and Scott LaRock that we all say hey
    Be like Tupac or be like Kid 'n Play
    Do you wanna burn out or just fade away
    I can rock the mic with no delay
    With my head to the ground every time I pray
    You can catch a heart attack or get blown away
    Cause this type of shit happens everyday
    Feel the burn
    -I can feel it all in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Feel the burn
    -It's in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    -It's deep down in my soul
    Feel the burn
    Now I can see I got a good foundation deep down in my soul
    -Its deep down in my soul
    It's Soul Music
    I feel the need for contemplation deep down in my soul
    -It's in my soul
    Soul Music
    And I can feel a dark sensation deep down in my soul
