About
Soul is at the heart of hip-hop, providing the inspiration for today’s chart-topping hip-hop tracks. Now four (4) new compilations present the best of soul--a total of 67 recordings, every track a #1 (nearly all on the R&B chart)--from the ‘60s to the ‘90s. Each of the Hip-O/UMe Soul Number 1’s albums in the new UMe Number 1’s series is set that was released on April 3, 2007 and packaged in a ground-breaking environmentally-friendly packaging format. A first for the music industry, the standard package (both sleeve and tray) will be completely paper-recyclable.
In the ‘60s, soul was cool.
In the ‘70s, sexy cool became sexy hot.
In the ‘80s, soul took on the sound of the future.
In the ‘90s, soul, R&B and hip-hop came together.
With James Brown - Number 1’s (available March 27), the Godfather of Soul rolls out hit after hit.
