Welcome to Frank Edwin's 5/9/2021 Salad Bar Top 100 a weekly inclusive feast where we invite you to Chow Down on a fresh variety of tasty musical artist cuisine. Romaine Calm - Turnip the Beet - Find Inner Peas.
Each of our new #1 Salad Songs this week debuted on the chart 11 weeks ago.
During #BlackHistoryMonth singer-songwriter Crys Matthews featured a daily music spotlight where she posted a song by a black artist who has used their art to create change. During that spotlight she introduced me to Nashville-by-way-of-England singer-songwriter Yola. Crys posted the following:
Her song Hold On is inspired by those conversations so many black girls have with their mothers growing up: conversations about that 'crystal stair', about all that glitters not being gold, and being careful. In a press release about the song, Yola said, “‘Hold On’ is a conversation between me and the next generation of young black girls.”
Her mother advised her that her role models were probably having a tougher time than they let on and that she might want to rethink going in to music, "but to me, that was all the more reason I should take up this space. ‘Hold On’ is asking the next gen to take up space, to be visible and to show what it looks to be young, gifted and black.”

Jenna Melanson shares the following about our next new #1 Salad Song for Canadian Beats Media:
Queer, non-binary, Indigenous pop singer/songwriter Angel Baribeau– based in Cree Nation of Mistissini, Quebec – tells a tale of love and loss passed to the next generation in their video for “Wish We Were Older”. Depicting an elderly woman reminiscing with visual memories about her past, the snapshots weave through love and loss and illustrate an uplifting timeline of her life as a queer woman.
