I'm done with hiphop brehs. Folk music :wow:

[Sankofa Alwayz]

Never really been into Folk music myself despite American Folk music having origins in Black American music. Usually whenever I need a break from both Hip Hop and R&B, I always opt for UK Garage, Deep House, GoGo, Jersey Club, 90’s New York House, New Jack Swing, South African House, Afrobeat, 90’s and 00’s Rock, Grunge, Dancehall, Detroit Techno, Fusion Jazz, and Neo-Soul

Some of that folk stuff is pretty dark and eerie almost like blues music.

blues is folk music....and alot of modern folk is loaded with blues and jazz influences

That's an oxymoron: "time is of the essence, gotta be patient"

I actually fukk with Simon & Garfunkel despite the responses here. My pops used to play their songs in the car all the time whenever we used to take long distance trips down to DC or Philly.

Some of us grew up with all kinds of music, not just hip hop and r&b.

Bless the ones that have a broad look at life

This song is absolutely gorgeous. I feel the urge to churn butter for tonight's meal of bread with mutton and a cup of mead.

Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyyyyyme

is this folk music?

no...maybe folk+ electronica. Folk music is basically roots/indigenous music n omatter where you look in the world. This is a better example of what you posted

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Soul music is the best IMO.

check out this album...soul folk jazz

My least favorite music of all time is a white guy on stage with an acoustic guitar singing

If that’s folk @Zero then

Dap and Rep. “Oh Maker” is a great song. The ArchAndroid is 1 of 3 albums that has changed my life. So amazing!

How did it change your life?

How did it change your life?

It changed my life because the themes of self realization showed me to embrace who I am and that it’s ok to be myself.

What were the other 2?

 

[DJ Mart-Kos]

Nobody can do a better vocal performance than David Ruffin. Rap in it's whole is a joke compared to this.

What were the other 2?

D’Angelo’s Voodoo and Janet Jackson’s The Velvet Rope are the other 2.
