»Am I Black Enough For You«

billypaul10.03.10
Die Geschichte des Philly Soul Sängers Billy Paul: "After his super-smash hit from 1972, Me and Mrs Jones, Billy Paul released an angry, radical track: Am I Black Enough for You? that astonished and even horrified the fans who had only recently swooned over his naughty-but-nice song of illicit pleasure. Paul had just achieved what everyone else in the business was yearning for: crossover success with the white record-buying public. But now he'd defiantly gone and alienated them, and his career nosedived, to re-emerge in the 1990s when DJs and rappers started championing Paul as the lost hero of black power." (The Guardian)
