Some months of the year get immortalized in song lyrics and titles far more frequently than others, and September happens to be one of them. I’m basing this assertion on a nonscientific Google search as well as lyrics that popped into my head when thinking about the month that bids goodbye to summer.
September songs span multiple genres, from R&B to funk to rock to jazz and even show tunes. Join me in a celebration of the first month of autumn and the music it has inspired.
”Black Music Sunday” is a weekly series highlighting all things Black music, with over 225 stories covering performers, genres, history, and more, each featuring its own vibrant soundtrack. I hope you’ll find some familiar tunes and perhaps an introduction to something new.
