Imad Essentials: Soul

At first listen, I used to think Lovers Rock was simply Jamaican reggae, which it actually isn't. The story of Lovers Rock actually goes a little like this:

In the 1950s, about half a million people moved from the Caribbean to the UK & brought with them a variety of music, for example reggae, calypso & soca. Lovers Rock grew from those roots as music of the first generation born and raised in the UK, fusing reggae basslines with the sweet soul sound from the US. Despite gaining popularity in the 70s, there were many other genres emerging at the same time, and Lovers Rock never became quite as mainstream as others had.

Dedicated to Yakira & Dennis Bovell,

P.s. if you want to know more about Lovers Rock, do check out:
Steve McQueens Small Axe episode "Lovers Rock" [2020] & The Story Of Lovers Rock [2011]

P.p.s Sades album Lovers Rock is named after this genre
