Who are the Southern Soul All-Stars? Quite simply, they are a Southern Soul, R&B/Blues collective, put together For The People & By The People (Uniquely designed in tribute & in homage of their aptly named record label.)
There is a unique blend of multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated Artists, Writers, & Producers, which will be a revolving door of t.b.d. talent, moving forward to & through the recording of their t.b.d. LP slated for release in the Spring of 2026. The lead single entitled "Firecracker" is a parody of the 1979 mega-hit of the same title, which reached number 4 on Billboards Hot R&B/Soul Chart by the group Mass Production. Southern Soul All-Stars loosely interpolate the aforementioned Mass Production's melodies & lyrics, in a playful poke at our 45th President, Donald J. Trump!
Even though there are no racial undertones in the lyrical content of "Firecracker," many at Mainstream R&B, Rhythmic & Top 40 radio, have steered away from even touching this record, simply out of fear of some type political retribution handed down by The President and his regime, amidst the cancelation of many talk-shiws and late-night broadcasts like Jimmy Kimmel that have simply spoken open, as well as honest & accurate truths & opinions about the present state of this Country under Trump. One thing's for sure: Southern Soul All-Stars will bite their tongues for noone! Whereas this is by no means a politically based group, ie, or , the viral aspect of this modernized version of "" will not be stopped!
Power to the people and even more power to the Southern Soul All-Stars for stepping up and defending their First Amendment right to "free speech" in today's ever-changing & evolving platforms to do so...
