Editorial Reviews

In the 20 or so years that rap has morphed into a mega-industry, a few practitioners of soul music have patiently refined and experimented with the tradition to develop a new form called Neo-Soul. Its roots firmly planted in rhythm and blues (R&B), this music grows and grooves beyond the confines of traditional soul, splaying in many directions — spoken word, jazz, world, reggae, and hip-hop. Whichever means it taps, Neo-Soul is spreading a message of musical consciousness to an ever-growing audience in search of something positive, uplifting, and real.
