Founded by Berry Gordy Jr. in 1959, Motown Records played a very important role in the racial integration of pop music crossing over with soul music and making it mainstream. From The Supremes to Smokey Robinson to Erykah Badu, these are my favorite Motown songs. If you missed the soul party live on Mixcloud here's the video of the episode ❤️
