Society Of Soul

Coming out of the Atlanta hip-hop scene that also includes OutKast, Goodie Mob, and producers Organized Noize, Society of Soul is composed of singers Espraronza and Sleepy Brown (whose father was a member of Brick), plus Big Rube, producer Rico Wade, and Ray Murray. Strongly influenced by '70s funk, the group also combines elements of rap and gospel, the latter courtesy of Espraronza. The group's 1995 debut, Brainchild, was partially recorded at Curtis Mayfield's CurTom studios.
