This week’s Africa Incorporated was a soulful ride through timeless voices, deep grooves, and heartfelt vibrations. I opened with Chaka Khan’s Through the Fire, setting the stage with pure R&B power, then paid tribute to the legendary Ron Carroll with classics like Hardsoul’s Back Together and Mercer’s Satisfy. Gene Farris kept the house roots alive before we shifted into new soul with Bakar’s Bitty and Haile Supreme’s Oasis.

The journey continued with hip hop and soul fusion from Brittney Carter (Everything I Need), Oliv Blu’s heartfelt Fall 4 You, and Amelia Moore’s remix of see through featuring Coco Jones. Jaz Karis & Juls took us higher with SIMS CASTAWAY, while H.E.R. and Chris Brown brought smooth modern R&B on Come Through.

To close, I paid respect to icons—Janet Jackson’s Got ‘Til It’s Gone, Lucy Pearl’s Everyday, and the kind of classic, soulful gems that remind us why this music endures. This episode was all about soul, connection, and timeless energy.
