A Video Playlist to Celebrate Black History Month
All Year Long
When I’m feeling a little downtrodden, beaten down, or depressed, I turn to music to renew my energies, revitalized my spirit, and inspire me with hope. Here are 9 inspirational musical performances by African-Americans artists.
- How I Got Over – Mahilia Jackson
- What’s Going On – Marvin Gaye
- Ain’t No Stopping Us Now – McFadden and Whitehead
- Stand – Sly and the Family Stone
- A Deeper Lover – Aretha Franklin
- Happy Birthday – Stevie Wonder
- Reach Out and Touch Somebody’s Hand – Diana Ross
- Now That We Found Love – Third World
- Ready or Not / If I Rule the World (A Medley) – The Fugees with special guest Nas
Bonus Track:
Keep Dancing in the Sun
In fact, a bonus song I’ll leave with you was one I produced for one of my creative partners and a great friend, Lene Newkirk, before his untimely passing. As light manifests all, the song is entitled, “Keep On Dancing in the Sun.” The song’s message reminds me, despite the darkness stretchcing before us, we need to pick up ourselves and keep moving forward, as struggles and tribulations are an inherent part of the journey.
What other songs do you listen to when you need a boost of hope and inspiration?
