It makes you wonder if becoming diverse and universal did no good for preserving the soul in black music. Black music could be at the point of no return. Furthermore, every last one of these artists who are now deceased was an original and never imitated any other music artists to gain fame. These days, you have a lot of imitators and this is one of the main reasons why we have no more black artist with any real soul heard when they sing, beside the fact the new generation knows what soul music means or even how to just be an original artist.
Single black women have always been in the black community and there is nothing strange about it. Whenever you see white women choosing to be single, you do not hear of black women insulting them.
