__**PRELIMINARY RESEARCH**__ Soul music is a combination of R&B and gospel, and began in the late 1950s in the United States. Soul differentiates from R&B because of Soul's use of gospel-music devices, its greater emphasis on vocalists and its merging of religious and secular themes. Soul traces its roots to four different sources: racial, geographical, historical and economical factors. The 1950s recordings of Sam Cooke, Ray Charles and James Brown are commonly considered the beginnings of soul music. as far as the demographics for soul/r and b fans. to be honest it varies some people listen to the music to calm them down relax, or for some to overcome a heartbreak, or even people who are in love tryna get in the mood. there are different demographics for soul/r and b color, race, sex has nothing to do with it. it depends on each individual what they like and reason for liking it. Artists market themselves by passing out flyers for upcomoing cd's, play in concerts,tv commercials and music videos. Also they promote their songs on the radio.
