While these songs cover the gamut of human emotion, there are a treasure trove that speak directly to the Black experience in America, holding a mirror up to the nation&#8217;s face and demanding a better future. Here are five indispensable songs that speak to self-love, liberation, and fighting back against the powers that be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Syl Johnson-&#8220;Is It Because I&#8217;m Black&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Syl Johnson - Is It Because I&#039;m Black\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KxvquwCqC2w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;After Martin Luther King got killed, I wanted to write a song\u2026. I didn\u2019t want to write no song about hating this people or hating that people\u2026 I really didn\u2019t have no vendetta against people. It\u2019s a sympathy song,&#8221; soul artist Syl Johnson once said about his mournful anthem &#8220;Is It Because I&#8217;m Black.&#8221; Released during the tumultuous year of 1969, the slow-burning track laments a world that willfully tries to hinder the opportunities of people based on race. Despite the song&#8217;s obvious heartache, Johnson still sounds prideful and resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>MonoNeon-&#8220;Breathing While Black&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MonoNeon Releases New Song, &quot;BREATHING WHILE BLACK&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qUZQ-NRSkxw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Like Sly Stone before him, MonoNeon is probably best known for his funked-out feel-good bangers, but still has the ability to come out with thoughtful laments about the harsher realities of the world.  During the revolutionary summer of 2020 that found tens of millions of people hitting the streets as part of the Black Lives Matter movement, MonoNeon released this modern classic that became a rallying cry for many here in the Bluff City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Jordan Occasionally- &#8220;Dear Broad, Bingham, and Beale&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dear Broad, Bingham, and Beale\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0UVPwsum4Ck?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As with MonoNeon, Jordan Occasionally is equally as capable of soundtracking a protest as they are at filling up the dance floor.  From the very beginning, the nonbinary activist&#8217;s music has always been unapologetically political, which is the case with this anti-gentrification track that speaks to the frustrations and anger felt by many when their neighborhoods seem to be sold off to the highest bidder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Negro Terror-&#8220;The Voice of Memphis&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Negro Terror - Voice of Memphis - Recorded Live @ Al Town Skate Park\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vbYkz5CBMas?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Before bandleader Omar Higgin&#8217;s untimely death in 2019, Memphis&#8217; all-Black hardcore band Negro Terror had established themselves as one of the city&#8217;s most exciting bands and seemed poised for a national breakout. While the pain of Omar&#8217;s loss still lingers, the band&#8217;s music lives on, especially &#8220;Voice of Memphis,&#8221; a reworking of the white-supremacist\/neo-Nazi skinhead band Skrewdriver&#8217;s &#8220;Voice of Britain.&#8221; Now THAT is punk rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Brandon Lewis-&#8220;Black Man&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Black Man (Official Music Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1wl62VqsW0Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Brandon Lewis&#8217; &#8220;Black Man,&#8221; which was also released during the summer of 2020, is both deeply personal and a call to pride for Black men everywhere. \u201cPart of being an artist, my responsibility is to not just make the things that we dance and groove to, but also music that implements a sense of social awareness,\u201d Lewis said at the time. The song&#8217;s video is also a beautiful homage to the city&#8217;s deep ties to the struggle for racial justice, largely shot at the historic Clayborn Temple where the iconic &#8220;I AM A Man&#8221; signs were first produced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For over a century, Black musicians have been the backbone of Memphis&#8217; world-renown music scene, making lasting contributions to the genres of blues, rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll, soul, gospel, hip-hop, and everything in between.
