In keeping with Black History Month who are your favorite groups or singers?
Mine are: The Four Tops, The Temptations, Earth, Wind and Fire,Kool and the Gang and New Edition for groups.
For singers: James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Smoky Robinson, Aretha Franklin, Michael and Janet Jackson, Lionel Richie, and Whitney Houston and Tina Turner and Prince. Now I think I’m done.

I like all of the one's you mentioned and would add (for actors) Sidney poiter (don't know if that's how you spell his last name)

And I would add Diana Ross, soul 2 soul, Bob marley, Barry white to your list of singers (to add only a few, because there's so so many!)

When I hear a song, I think, do I like it or do I not like it. I have to listen several times. I usually don't know the band or singer.

Because it’s music related. I forgot another one Dione Warwick (who happens to be Whitney Houston’s 1st cousin).

Dionne Warwick. Another group The Whispers.
This post is meant to praise Black musicians who shaped all areas of music and even started different styles of music.

Speaking of Bob Marley do you know there’s a movie coming out about him this Valentine’s Day titled “One Love”? I’ve also seen where a movie is going to be made based on Michael Jackson titled “Michael” and so far one actor has been chosen to portray his father Joe.

Lauren Henderson is criminally underrated.
Aretha Franklin is classic goodness.

Yes, actually I just saw the advert for the Bob Marley movie only this morning....

And Michael Jackson, well he did a lot for the music scene, so I guess he deserves a mention too...

Most of the music I listened in my youth was by black artist's, having grown up in ghetto...
