RIP “Soul Train” Creator Don Cornelius

“Cornelius created the R&B dance television program in 1971. It became a huge success all over the world, offering critical exposure to artists like James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye, and Michael Jackson. Cornelius hosted the show until 1993; it aired until 2006.”
