Your favorite 70's era Soulmeister
Curtis Mayfield?

Issac Hayes?

Marvin Gaye?

Al Green?

Gil Scott Heron?

It's a tossup between Curtis and Marvin, personally....

You can't hear that music and not feel badass yourself...

9. Curtis Mayfield is the greatest artist of that group.
though most cite Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin' On" as the ultimate album of that era
