Secondhand Soul
Добавлен 27 дек 2024
Welcome to Secondhand Soul, purveyor of soul music from musicians who were, well… let’s just say they were “underappreciated” in their time. We specialize in hits that never hit, grooves that never got their groove on, and talent that was, quite frankly, talent-adjacent.
Our record label proudly resurrects the forgotten songs of almost-legends-artists who didn’t quite have the magic of Motown or the budget for studio time. Whether it’s Lester “Loose Strings” McCoy and his one-man band debacle or The Overtones (who were consistently under-pitched), we’ve got the tunes that almost made the cut.
Every song is dripping with that vintage soul vibe you love-horns that blare, harmonies that try, and lyrics that make you wonder, “Did they really rhyme ‘love’ with ‘glove’ again?”
So dust off your dancing shoes, lower your expectations just a smidge, and dive into the grooves of Secondhand Soul-where the music is recycled, but the feelings are real(ish). It’s soul with a second chance!

Lost 1973 R&B Soul Gem: Broke But Bougie (Never Before Heard!)
Meet Sapphire Divine-the self-proclaimed heiress to a fortune that does not exist, the queen of "just put it on the card," and your new favorite financial disaster. With a taste level that screams old money and a bank account that whispers girl, stop, she’s here to bless the world with her latest anthem: "Broke But Bougie."
The song was inspired by a particularly tragic Monday morning, when Sapphire woke up in silk pajamas (from an outlet sale, duh), surrounded by Sephora boxes, receipts she refused to look at, and a $7.42 bank balance. Did she panic? No. Did she learn her lesson? Absolutely not. Instead, she poured herself a mimosa (with the last of the Tropicana and a half-flat bottle of...

cute painting.... Lyrics don't sound like from the 1960's! A.I.? 😂🤣😁
First
AI content should be labelled.
Is that what this is? I can tell the image used is, but the music I don't know if it's real or AI.
@@PioneerOPioneer The graphics scream AI, the description is absolute rubbish: much of it was the AI prompt, and in the last paragraph it gives the game away. You can look at the other videos in the channel too. This is exploitative crud that needs to be labeled if not outright deleted. I reported it as fraud, as I do with all AI generated channels that do not label themselves as such.
😅😂🤣way to go Girl 👌😁👍
Sexiest song
Gangsta soul music❤❤
Straight ghetto from the aftermath of Jim Crow
This is one my fav songs from now
I am guessing this didn't get much airtime in 1968?
shame about the PROFANITY...THIS IS A GREAT PIECE OF NORTHERN SOUL.....🤪🤪
I'm like you, I don't think this record came out in 1971. I think the marketing it as a 1971 sound but this is modern, the lyrics are modern the use of profanity is modern it's just a modern day rendition
Friday Night shit
Nice, pure gangsta soul
Just like I like it. Thx
No way this came out the year I was born!
CRAP .AND MORE CRAP..GET LOST SOME WHERE..😢😮
Now I hear that Lyrics clearly These lyrics are lyrical revelations and not something any rapper can just write and this is fire 😂😂
