    Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Sound Flave. Today's topic is Whole House Full of Kings & Queens.


    Motown had a whole House full of kings and Queens. Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Stevie Wonder, and Aretha Franklin, and a whole list of them in the same house.

    Now Michael Jackson is the number one king in the world. He started out as a Motown star with his brothers the Jackson 5.

    Aretha Franklin is the Queen of Soul. She's another Motown star.

    Whitney Houston reigned as the Queen of Pop.

    James Brown is Godfather of Soul.

    Looks like to me, there is room for all that work hard to be number one in music. Rolling Stone has written an article titled The 200 Greatest asingers of All Time.

    Today you hear rumors among fans: Who is a far better singer than who? I don't understand why people compare singers.

    When I was growing up hearing Motown, listening with family and friends, everybody just enjoyed the music.

    When disco came along all of the singers got an applied in the 80s. We loved of course Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Madonna, and the list goes on. There were so many singers that the world enjoyed.

    Now we are being told that they'll never be another James Brown or Michael Jackson. I don't know why because there are some more talented people out there just like them or better than them. God gave so many people so much talent, and if you're trying to get into the business, we all know that if it's not about talent, it ain't the music business, and there should be room for all.

    I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening.
