This Worldby The Staple Singers

Artist Bio:
The Staple Singers were an American gospel, soul, and R&B singing group formed in 1948 in Chicago by patriarch Roebuck "Pops" Staples and his children Cleotha, Pervis, Yvonne, and Mavis. They are best known for their socially conscious lyrics and smooth harmonies, blending gospel, soul, and R&B influences to create a unique sound. The group achieved commercial success in the 1970s with hits like "Respect Yourself" and "I'll Take You There," which became anthems of the civil rights movement.

The Staple Singers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999 and received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005. Their music continues to inspire and influence generations of artists, and their legacy as pioneers of gospel and soul music remains strong today.
