I often here the term soul and usually in the context of black artists have
it and white ones don't. It has come up in this discusion about Joni and her
black fans, it being said that Joni, unlike other white artists, has soul.
I have no idea what you all mean by this. Are we saying that to have soul
means that the person is authentic in their feeling? that their work comes
from a genuine place within them and that most white people's art is
superficial? That cannot be what you all mean because that is racist to say
the least. Sp please explain what you mean by the term 'soul' when it comes
to music/art.
