Subject: Favorite Songs by Black Singers/Groups From: Azizi Date: 17 Aug 08 - 09:43 PM The purpose of this thread is to share examples of songs from African American, African, Caribbean cultures and other Black cultures. I consider this thread as a companion to thread.cfm?threadid=8776&messages=122 Fifty Songs Everyone Should Know. While reading that thread, I realized how many of those songs I didn't know, and how few songs from Black cultures were included in those list. I then got to thinking about which songs that were sung by African American singers and other singers from Africa and the African Diaspora I would list as my favorites. And so I started listing some songs, and then went searching for them on YouTube. I'm sharing these examples not as a means of segregating Black singers from non-Black singers, but hopefully as a means of increasing awareness about these songs for those who may not have been aware of them. I'm also starting this thread as a way for those who are already aware of these songs to enjoy listening to them once again. I hope that other Mudcat members, and Mudcat guests will join me in adding your favorites to this thread. Thanks, in advance, for your participating in this thread. |
