  1. Well, those folks sit in the middle. You had acid jazz influence, then someone like Meshell Ndegeocello, then Badu and Jill Scott, then you had it connect more with hiphop, then it connected (Frank Ocean, for instance) with alternative R&B, then...
  2. Example? 25 Neo-Soul Artists Reshaping Contemporary Soul in 2025 There's always the Swedish version:

    Ahh, man, that's too bad. This was my introduction to him as a 12-year-old listening to the radio show "Transition." Uhuru too! Yes, definitely: that voice!

  12. Good to see that Dahinden will be involved.
  13. You can break down the title like this: "B-X⁰" is the category or system within his comp. language with the "B" referring to a series and the "X⁰" being a subset or a structural branch. The "NO-47ᴬ": "NO" being a notational code that brings us to "47ᴬ" being Composition 47 with an alternative version "ᴬ". Also, the "100 Tubas" work is an early work - from '68/'69 - being his 19th official composition.
  14. Dat's da breaks!
