They may have natural blond hair and blue eyes but they have more soul than fried chicken and collard greens. These artists have proven themselves talented enough to be categorized under the R&B Music genre or better known as Blue Eyed Soul Music. Their voices are as soulful as Aretha Franklin and the lyrics have the bluesy feel our grand parents & parents who grew up listening to the original Rhythm and Blues can appreciate. If they can so can you. The music is heartfelt and “relateable” to us. When it comes to having soul there is no discrimination against color, race or ethnicity.
