The Whispers

On this week's episode of R&B Money, Tank and J Valentine welcome the Legendary Whispers. They discuss how they emerged from the backstage of a high school talent show before scoring their first radio hit with assistance from Sly Stone. Exploring further into their success story, the group discusses forging ahead in spite of numerous adversities while becoming the inaugural act on Soul Train Records - an alliance between Dick Griffey and Don Cornelius that was unfortunately short-lived. Elaborating upon distinctions between the church side of R&B verses the Cadillac side, alongside delving into nuances regarding music industry regulations dating back decades as well as contemporary censorship issues versus what is dispensed today.
