During this time, songs like "Dancing in the Street" and "What's Going On?" targeted social issues in America and created a voice for African-American people through their messages. Events like the Mississippi Freedom Summer and Bloody Thursday inspired the artists at Motown to create these songs. Influenced by the cultural and social circumstances of the Civil Rights Movement, the musical output of Motown Records between 1959 and 1972 evolved from a sole focus on entertainment in popular culture to a focus on motivating social change through music.

Hawkins (right) and Rosa L. Hawkins (left), joined by Athelgra Neville. Photo by Richard Strauss, Smithsonian Institution Rhythm and Blues 53 Tell It Like It Is by Mark Puryear In 1964 The Dixie Cups®, a female vocal trio from New Orleans, crooned out a cheerful version of “Chapel of Love” and knocked the Beatles from their number one spot on the pop charts. A year later, the trio released “Iko Iko,” a song first released in 1954 by James “Sugar Boy” Crawford as “Jock-A-Mo,” whose lyrics recount the meeting of two groups of Mardi Gras Indians. Since then, this song has been cov- ered by artists from the Grateful Dead to Cyndi Lauper, and continues to move new generations with its infectious New Orleans rhythms. The career of The Dixie Cups, and their direct and indirect roles in carrying rhythm and blues (R&B) into mainstream consciousness, speaks to the enduring pow- er of this music to transcend region and musical category and become a representative sound of the country. Musical Crossroads by Dwandalyn Reece The National Museum of African American History of musical genres, highlighting musical innovations, and Culture (NMAAHC) was established by an act of significant time periods and events along with Congress in 2003 making it the nineteenth museum historic performances to capture the music’s impact of the Smithsonian Institution.

  • Jackie Wilson: a Biography
    Jackie Wilson: A Biography By Harvey Kubemik Jackie Wilson is one of the most important and influential recording artists of his generation. He was called “Mr. Excitement.” Jackie possessed dazzling stage moves and a soaring vocal range with a mesmerizing upper register few artists could do in a studio or on stage. Wilson’s music spanned a variety of genres from doo-wop and rhythm & blues to easy listening standards and rock ‘n’ roll. Jackie was an electrifying, charismatic showman. He was an agent of race music’s transition from the fifties that would lead to the sixties R&B and soul formats. “Jackie Wilson was my close friend and was one of the greatest entertainers ever. Hands down,” volunteered Marshall Thompson of The Chi-Lites. “He had the looks for the people and the girls screaming ‘til their heads fell off. The greatest dancer to ever hit a stage!” “Just listen to his voice. Who has those three and a half octaves and that incredible operatic instrument,” suggested music journalist, Kirk Silsbee. “And, who is gonna do on stage what Jackie did? 'Jackie Wilson was also employing things that seemed to defy human possibility in his stage moves. “Jackie was the first artist at the Apollo Theater to make audiences rash the stage,” stressed Bobby Schiffman, the former owner of the famed Harlem venue. Jackie Wilson became a mainstay of the R&B and pop charts from 1958 to 1970, where he amassed two dozen Top Forty singles. All of his classics were released on the landmark Brunswick Records label under the direction of future label president and record producer Nat Tarnopol, who initially served as Wilson’s manager and was a crucial force in shaping R&B music in that period.

  • Dear Hozier, Have You Heard of Cottagecore?
    Emily: Dear Hozier, Sally: Dear Hozier, Have you heard of cottagecore? One of the stranger questions I’ve asked into the ether of this project. It’s a term that’s relatively new to me, but according to certain news outlets, the cottagecore aesthetic has been spiking along with Coronavirus. I write this in July of 2020, if I may be so bold as to date myself in the hopes this reaches some posterity. The amount of times I’ve sung along to “Jackie and Wilson” is frankly absurd. But hey, it’s catchy. It’s upbeat. And it is entirely within my very limited vocal range. Also, how can you beat a line like, “I need to be youthfully felt, ‘cause God, I never felt young”? I had no idea where the names Jackie and Wilson came from the first, third, and twentieth time I sang along to this song, and I was never curious enough to look it up. I only figured out the reference when I was casually looking up the lyrics (I always trip over “Me and my isis growing black irises in the sunshine”). I was on one of those sites that does all the annotation for you, and hey presto, would you look at that? Jackie Wilson was a real person. A soul singer from the ‘50s and ‘60s. And hey, I even knew that song, “Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher.” I like that song. Insider defines cottagecore as “an aesthetic movement that draws together all the best parts of going off ​ and living in a cabin in the woods.
