TheFlyingCarpet have a special trip for you today.
We think that if god existed, she would be a black woman.
Today's songs are some of the evidences we have.
We start with Dinah Washington, singing the Cole Porter standar "I've Got You Under My Skin" and we follow with Sade, with a Cottonbelly mix of the popular "By Your Side". Nexts evidences: Marlena Shaw with "California Soul" and Letta Mbulu with "Mahlalela (Lazy Bones) from his 1970's Chisa Record's album Letta.
More proves? Take this: The African Divas with Frederic Galliano, in this case the senegalese singer Naffi Diédhou, with the groovy song "Koutiom", and the nigerian Lijadu Sisters, with "Orere Eljigbo".
We follow the demonstration with Rokia Traoré and the song "Nienafing", Nina Simone with "Obeah Woman" and Lorez Alexandria with "I'm Whishin".
Still skepticals? Take this: Nicole Willis & The Soul Investigators with "My Four Leaf Clover" and finally Ella Fitzgerald accompanied by Count Basie with "Tea For Two".
If you're convinced, not about the existence of god, but about the fact that if god existed she would be a black woman, come back soon on TheFlyingCarpet. If you're not convinced, nevermind and come back soon on TheFlyingCarpet!
Enjoy.
