Parole Myra Barnes, in arte Vicki Anderson.
Musica di James Brown e Bootsy Collins.
Un brano storico, una base ossessiva, in loop - costituita da quattro note di pianoforte, un riff di basso, un accenno di fiati - ancora oggi campionata da tantissimi artisti (Lil' Kim feat. Puff Dadd, Gang Starr, Above The Law, Big Daddy Kane, Geto Boys, ecc.), assoli di sax e infuriare di ottoni... E sopra tutto la voce di Myra Barnes, in arte Vicki Anderson, corista della James Brown Revue insieme a Marva Whitney e Lyn Collins, e dal «Godfather of Soul» ritenuta la sua cantante preferita, la migliore di tutte, la migliore di sempre.
E fu proprio il suo mèntore a mettere in musica e a produrre questo «Message From the Soul Sisters» scritto dalla Anderson, che divenne subito un vero e proprio inno «black» del movimento femminista e che fu il più grande successo nella lunga carriera di questa incredibile cantante.
