## Caption

Raphael Saadiq shared in an IG comment that the term "neo-soul" was coined by a single Black executive as internal shorthand — a way for labels to categorize artists who wouldn't receive crossover marketing budgets. "It had nothing to do with the sound of the music," he writes, contrasting it with hip-hop, which he describes as a genre defined by the people rather than the industry.  __ #pigeonsandplanes #neosoul #raphaelsaadiq #hiphop
