I’m an Old Soul

Not really. I’m not I’m an old soul in a young bod, but it is Old School Friday and the theme is Neo Soul.

Not really clear what Neo-Soul is except a rebranding of soul, differentiating it from old soul by giving the natural progression of it a new name.

My choice would have been Raheem DeVaughn, he rocked the house when I saw him in June at Merriweather Post Pavilion, but the rules say Old School is prior to 1999 so I’m going with Jamiroquai ( (I know this is debatable) An old high school stand-by. And Jill Scot because she has been around long enough and I love her.

Couldn’t find the video I wanted, so this is the next best thing.

10 Thoughts on “I’m an Old Soul

  1. Great picks! Jill is always an awesome choice!

  2. Jamiroquai was big for a very short time but long enough for me to get one of his CD’s. Don’t know what happened to it or to him. Not a bad choice.

  3. I keep meaning to get into the old school friday thing I just never catch the wave before it passes.

    I like the choices. I like most music, it’s not too hard to please me.

  4. Oh, oh, oh…Ms. Jill! This is my anthem, you know…

    And Jamiroquai…he seemed to vanish before I got my arms around him…but I dig this choice…

  5. I had to come back because YouTube wouldn’t let me listen. I’d forgotten about Jamiroquai. He was fun wasn’t he? :-)

    Jill Scott is the auntie of neo-soul. Great picks.
