fionmul: Buddy looks like a ritz cracker in a hat, Google it. Even made the album art ambiguous to cloak his act.

• ared56 +2
• Edward James +1 — WOW this is so phenomenally good. I've heard this before and definitely thought it was a black guy. It also musically has some stylistic components that I think match that assumption better than the other 70s/smooth/soul entries. Perfect choice imo.
• Claire +1 — Thought about submitting this one. Some have said that “wait that’s a white guy?!?” =/= “white people doing black people music” and while it’s true that those are two distinct categories, I think this song fits both

• Joseph Harvey 0 — Wish I had more upvotes
• Brad Stalcup 0 — I enjoyed this song the most on this list, but it didn't really strike me as "black people music"
