Musiq Soulchild appreciates the power of music. So much so that he’s used his name as an ode to his greatest influences: 1970s R&B and soul legends Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway and Marvin Gaye. The hip-hop soul singer’s musical talents have garnered recognition from Billboard, BET, ASCAP, BMI, Soul Train, MTV, the American Music Awards, the NAACP, and a dozen Grammy nominations.
