Samenvatting:

Motown, the crossover label made rhythm and blues the soul of American popular culture. Join us in honoring the artists connected to Hitsville, USA, and 30 years’ worth of “The Sound of Young America.” We asked contributors to show us their knowledge of Motown, its history and its place amongst R&B, soul, and Hip-Hop. We invited them to pay homage to the greats: Martha and the Vandellas, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Supremes, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, The Jackson Five, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Rick James, The Pointer Sisters, Lionel Ritchie, Teena Marie, DeBarge, Erykah Badu, Toni Braxton, Queen Latifah, Diddy, Ne-Yo, Lil Yachty, Migos and so many more. This new poetry anthology is the result.
