One of the most powerful traditions in music happens when legends honor the legends who came before them.
Recently, Stevie Wonder performed at the funeral of civil rights icon Jesse Jackson, and it sparked a powerful question online: when Stevie Wonder is gone⊠who will sing for him?
In this solo episode of Song of the Week, Jordan reflects on the artists who defined Stevie Wonderâs generation â legends like Smokey Robinson, Chaka Khan, and Diana Ross â and explores who todayâs artists might be that carry the torch.
From modern icons like Beyoncé, Usher, John Legend, and Jamie Foxx, to the next generation of soul and R&B voices, Jordan asks a bigger question about music and legacy:

This episode is a reflection on greatness, influence, and the artists who will one day be asked to honor the giants who shaped modern music.
