A music genre that was popularized by the African American community in the 60s and 70s that combines traditional African gospel with blues.
It's basically rhythm and blues but with African roots.
Soul genre was named to pinpoint that the songs were sung with a lot of soul in them. To varying degrees, the power and personality of the form were absorbed in disco, funk, and hip-hop, styles that owe their existence to the soul.
So today certain other genre music can also be sub-classified as soul.
Some popular soul artists are,
Mary J. Blige. Mary J.
D'Angelo. D'Angelo.
Maxwell. Maxwell.
Erykah Badu.
Lauryn Hill.
Raphael Saadiq.
Anthony Hamilton
Joss Stone

Get the drunk soulsmug. 
those with 'stiff' (conservative?, slow-witted?) mental attitudes and tendencies, when faced with some situation requiring a 'tad' bit of imagination. (aka; 'walking of the "wild" side'/stretching' of the mind.
those quick to 'not get it', and/or walk away quickly, back to their minister, banker, bishop or momma!

when joe spit flaming alcohol out of his mouth, the simpler souls didn't 'get it'!!
the simpler souls quickly left, when our fart-lighting session began.
we trained wendy to fart and belch, but the simpler souls couldn't handle it!

Get the simpler soulsmug. The greatest soundcloud artist that has ever lived. The existence of K-Soul is considered a myth among many people in Canada because the stories of him are too savage.
Person 1: Yo did you listen to that new K-Soul
Person 2: Damn he a real person? I thought he was just a myth

Get the K-Soulmug. Me: “Hey Bill, are you going to Soul survivor this year”
Bill: “definitely! I’m hoping to hang out with the homies there”
Me: “Nice! I may, God willing, meet a girl”
