This music is important to history because it brought back the embrace of black culture

These artists were not trying to assimilate into the white community

They wanted to create good music from their black roots and wanted the white community to be able to accept it

The music is what matters, not the race who created it

Was the opposite of Motown pop

People saw southern soul as “blacker” than Motown because Southern Soul wasn’t trying to assimilate into the white community… Southern Soul artists were just creating music that the can truly feel and embrace

These artists didn’t care about who or what hear them, they just wanted to make good music

Stax Records (The home of Southern Soul) had a band like the Wrecking Crew and also had a song-writing team

Southern Soul was thought of when Atlantic Records partnered at Stax Records and gave Stax Aretha Franklin and Wilson Pickett
