Neo Soul music has come a long way, using the same foundation cultivated by phenomenal recording artist. Erykah Badu, Deangelo, Jill Scott and Rapheal Saadiq just to name a few, are the originals of this sensual and spiritual genre of music.
Over the years music has evolved , as with the genre of Neo Soul, it has developed a new distinctive sound that has taken over the contemporary R&B and Soul Radio markets.
These younger artist have merged Soul, R&B , Trap and Neo Soul and created the infectious sound coined Trap Soul.
Artist such as Summer Walker, SZA, Her , and Bryson Tiller have reshaped the Neo Soul Sound and given us the insight to how the younger generation hears music.
The noticeable real life lyrical content that brings us back to that emotional space. That raw sound that makes us relive the ups and downs of relationships and sketchy situation ships and even reminds us of the sexy moments drunken party nights and melancholy rainy days.
These artist have given us the soundtrack to the times we live in and the production on the songs seem to not be out matched.
One thing is for sure, artist like Ella Mai and Ari Lennox are a breath of fresh air. Their eccentric style captures our imagination as we sing along with the music we seemed to can't stop the sound from taking us to that very moment.
That connection had been lost in music but this new generation of artist are not afraid to push the envelope. These artist often admit that the original Neo Soul giants paved the way and gave the direction "these younger artist understood the assignment".
Music is sexy again, informative again and a super ride for the emotional thrill seekers in us.
I personally am gamed to see what 2023 will bring us on the music front..
