What happened to soul music? Filmmaker, musician and guardian of the new soul era Jason Orr answers that question definitively with his ground breaking music documentary Diary of a Decade. Check out the star power in the trailer for the film:

The film is a treasure of exclusive interviews and live performances from the legendary arts and music festival FunkJazz Kafé. Diary also shares cerebral narratives on the status of black music peppered with commentary by a diverse field of aficionados such as Cee-Lo Green, Erykah Badu, George Clinton, Roy Ayers, Dick Gregory, Professor Griff, Jamie Foxx, Speech (Arrested Development), Dallas Austin, Chuck D, Cornel West and many more.

Over a decade in the making, Diary of A Decade’s premier screening was held this summer at the 2011 National Black Arts Festival in Atlanta to a packed audience at the Rialto Center for the Arts.
