@UpshallJessica2 True. The past is always going to be the past, the best we can do is learn from it and move forward. I feel that so long as credit is rightfully given to the original artists/cultures, and the wrongdoing has been admitted. #S22POPMUS

I once heard someone say: "a true artist makes their audience feel."– precisely what Ray Charles accomplishes in his song. The broken voice emanates such undeniable, organic, human emotion that is genuinely felt by the audience. #S22POPMUS
Streaming services, such as #spotifly, have not only provided individuals' freedom of expression through creating playlists of music that inspires them, but also by allowing them to share these playlists with others holding similar passions + musical appreciations! #S22POPMUS
