Retro soul queen Sharon Jones was among the singers featured recently  at VH1 Divas Celebrates Soul and she suggested that there was at least one diva who didn’t deserve her spot on the stage. The former prison guard doesn’t name the soul perpetrator, but on recent radio show on Friday, she dropped a hint as she bemoaned the sad state of popular music:

“They call those kids up there talkin’ bout they’re soul singers, don’t get me wrong, they sing, they do their thing, they’re pop singers. They need to get it straight. I think soul has lost what it’s all about.  Anytime you get some little young, I’m not gonna call names, you get somebody that’s been out here five minutes, come up and sing a song and you can’t even remember the hook of the song they singing, because it’s not soul.”

Likely suspects: Number One. Number 2.
