The Soulquarians collective is one of the most revered in Black music and one of the most important crews that have ever come together in any musical discipline. Comprised of legendary artists like Erykah Badu, D’Angelo, the late Roy Hargrove, Q-Tip, Common, The Roots, Bilal and the legendary J Dilla, the Soulquarians helped shape neo-soul while also carrying the torch for alternative hip-hop crews like Native Tongues. In the late 1990s, they changed the landscape of urban music with songs and albums that were as spiritual as they were soulful; music that could be personal but with universal reach.
For this Wellness Wednesday, here are 10 Soulquarian tracks to help you find serenity when you need it most. If your world is getting heavy, light a candle, say a mantra and put on some tracks from this legendary crew to get yourself balanced. Tap in below.
