Bobby Womack has and will
always be one of my favorite singer-song writers. Every time I hear
"That's The Way I Feel About Cha", "Woman's Gotta Have
It", “Across 110th Street", "If You Think You're
Lonely Now", “I Can Understand It”, “I Wish He Didn't
Trust Me So Much”, “Harry hippie” and “I'm Looking For A
Love”. I get chills! Bobby Womack’s career spanned more than
50 years. This R&B, soul, rock and roll, doo-wop, gospel, and
country singer gave the world beautiful music that has and will live
on forever. For all of you who did not know Bobby Womack, he made one
more album at the age of 68 called “The Bravest Man In The
Universe” released in 2012. It has a modern day sound with the
electronic rhythms, synthesizers, and keyboards but it also stays
true to Bobby Womack sound. That raspy voice and those deep lyrics.
Here are a list of my favorite songs on this album “Please Forgive
My Heart”, “The Bravest Man In The Universe”, “Dayglo
Reflection (featuring Lana Del Rey)”, “Stupid”, “Love Is
Gonna Lift You Up” and “Nothin' Can Save Ya (feat Fatoumata
Diawara)”. Bobby Womack was one true artist that could write
significant lyric’s that told you what was going on in the world at
the time. R.I.P. in peace Bobby Womack your music will live on
forever. If you don’t know who Bobby Womack is. You can listen to
Bobby Womack’s music on Streetwise Radio and become a fan. Also
